Arguments over constitutional interpretation increasingly highlight
the full range of political, moral, and cultural fault lines in
American society. Yet all the contending parties claim fealty to
the Constitution. This volume brings together some of America's
leading scholars of constitutional originalism to reflect on the
nature and significance of various approaches to constitutional
interpretation and controversies. Throughout the book, the
contributors highlight the moral and political dimensions of
constitutional interpretation. In doing so, they bring
constitutional interpretation and its attendant disputes down from
the clouds, showing their relationship to the concerns of the
citizen. In addition to matters of interpretation, the book deals
with the proper role of the judiciary in a free society, the
relationship of law to politics, and the relationship of
constitutional originalism to the deepest concerns of political
thought and philosophy.
