Description
How ought judges interpret the Constitution, and where does the law derive its authority and legitimacy? In this episode of the Regent Law Podcast, Dean S. Ernie Walton welcomes Senior Associate Dean Gregory F. Jacob to the Regent Law community for a conversation on originalism and its place in contemporary legal thought.
Exploring competing approaches, including living constitutionalism and common good constitutionalism, Deans Walton and Jacob examine questions of legal authority, constitutional interpretation, and legitimacy, with Dean Jacob making the case for why originalism remains the soundest path forward for the conservative legal movement.
