This conference is sponsored by the Oscar M. Ruebhausen Fund, Yale Journal of Law & the Humanities and by the Information Society Project at Yale Law School.
On April 27 and 28, 2012, Yale Law School will host a conference on constitutional interpretation and change in conjunction with the publication of Professor Jack Balkin’s book, Living Originalism (Harvard University Press 2011).
Living Originalism offers a theory of constitutional interpretation that is both faithful to the Constitution’s original meaning and consistent with a living Constitution; it argues that the best versions of originalism and living constitutionalism are compatible rather than opposed. The book also explains how legitimate constitutional change occurs in the American constitutional system through the efforts of the political branches, political parties, social movements, and the institutions of civil society.
