Is the Constitution in danger?
Tom Ginsburg, professor of international law at the University of Chicago, will deliver the Kormendy Lecture at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 13 at the law college. He will discuss “How to lose constitutional democracy – and how to save it.”
In his talk, Ginsburg will explore if the United States is at risk of democratic backsliding and if the Constitution can prevent it. As he notes, to some, the 2016 election campaign brought this question to the forefront, while to others, the election represented a populist accountability movement against an unresponsive elite.
Ginsburg will draw on comparative law and politics to explore the state of constitutional democracy in the United States.
