Yes, the incorporation controversy regarding the application of the Bill of Rights to the states typically involves four main approaches: the total incorporation approach, which argues that all provisions of the Bill of Rights apply to the states; the selective incorporation approach, which asserts that only certain rights are applicable through the Fourteenth Amendment; the fundamental rights approach, which focuses on rights essential to the notion of liberty; and the "no incorporation" approach, which holds that the Bill of Rights applies solely to the federal government. Each approach reflects differing interpretations of the Constitution and the intentions of the framers.
No. In reference to the Constitution, "incorporation" means applying portions of the Bill of Rights to the States, to prevent the states from infringing on people's constitutional rights. A change or addition to the Constitution is called an amendment.
