The Progressive Constitution, with Professor Pam Karlan
- This event has passed.
Room 190
Description: Some advocate an originalist or strict constructionist interpretation of the Constitution, but the text points to a progressive interpretation — with an eye toward goals like expanding equality and minimizing injustice. Or so argues Professor Pam Karlan in her new book, Keeping Faith With the Constitution. Join the American Constitution Society for its first lunch event of the year and a discussion of constitutional fidelity, democratic constitutionalism and the progressive response to Antonin Scalia.
