We’re starting our Thursday #ACS2020 livestream A Constitution for the 21st Century feat ACS’s Zinelle October, Praveen Fernandes of @MyConstitution, Joseph Fishkin of @UTexasLaw, Pamela Karlan of @StanfordLaw, @ProfMMurray & David Strauss of @UChicagoLaw acslaw.org/2020-acs-natio…
Praveen Fernandes of @MyConstitution explains that although there used to be two clear paths to constitutional interpretation -- originalism and living constitutionalism -- these strict categories are no longer articles of faith for conservatives or liberals. #ACS2020
Pam Karlan explains there are many methods of constitutional interepretation and the difference of outcomes is not a product of methodology but what intelligence we bring to bear on constitutional problems
