Introduction to Balkinization Symposium on Ken Kersch, Conservatives and the Constitution


This week and next at Balkinization we are hosting a symposium on Ken Kersch's new book, Conservatives and the Constitution: Imagining Constitutional Restoration in the Heyday of American Liberalism (Cambridge University Press, 2019). This is a history of conservative thought about the Constitution before the Reagan Era.

We have assembled a terrific group of commentators, including Steve Calabresi (Northwestern), Erwin Chemerinsky (Berkeley), Mark Graber (Maryland), Steve Griffin (Tulane), Andrew Koppelman (Northwestern), Gary Lawson (B.U.), Sandy Levinson (Texas), Ann Southworth (U. C. Irvine), and Mark Tushnet (Harvard)

At the conclusion, Ken will respond to the commentators.
