Description

Constitutional Transformations: The State, the Citizens, and the Changing Role of Government

A William and Mary Law Review Symposium

 

On February 25-26, 2011, IBRL will host the William & Mary Law Review Symposium Constitutional Transformations: The State, the Citizens, and the Changing Role of Government at the William & Mary School of Law.  The Symposium will gather leading constitutional scholars to discuss whether, in fact, we are in a transformative constitutional moment, and, if so, what implications this may have for constitutional practice, theory, and understanding.

The participants will address a variety of constitutional issues, including declining state participation in certain critical public functions, increasing state ownership of private assets, the constitutional implications of new federal entitlement programs and mandates, the changing transmission of international norms across boundaries, the changing role of states in the federal system, the operation of the surveillance state, the conception of “citizenship” in a globalized world, the meaning and enforcement of equality, and the role of originalism and popular constitutionalism during periods of constitutional change.

Participants include: Adam Cox (Chicago), Michael Dorf (Cornell), Heather Gerken (Yale), Helen Hershkoff (NYU), John McGinnis (Northwestern), Gillian Metzger (Columbia), Jide Nzelibe (Northwestern), Edward Rubin (Vanderbilt), Frederick Schauer (Virginia), Paul Schwartz (Berkeley), David Strauss (Chicago), Amy Wax (Penn), Robin West (Georgetown), Christopher Yoo (Penn), John Yoo (Berkeley)
