SUMMARY:Is Authoritarian Constitutionalism an Oxymoron?
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mark Tushnet\, William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law\, Emeritus\, Harvard Law School; Co-editor\, Oxford Handbook of Law and Authoritarianism \n\n\n\nProfessor Tushnet\, who graduated from Harvard College and Yale Law School and served as a law clerk to Justice Thurgood Marshall\, specializes in constitutional law and theory\, including comparative constitutional law. His research includes studies of constitutional review in the United States and around the world\, and the creation of other “institutions for protecting constitutional democracy.” He also writes in the area of legal and particularly constitutional history\, with works on the development of civil rights law in the United States and a history of the Supreme Court in the 1930s. \n\n\n\nA light lunch will be provided. \n\n\n\nPlease note: In past years\, most EALS talks were in Morgan Courtroom (Austin 308)\, but due to the construction project currently underway next to Austin Hall\, we will hold most EALS talks in Wasserstein Hall this year. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
