Red, White, and Blue: A Critical Analysis of Constitutional Law

In: Constitutional Thinking

Abstract

"Professor Tushnet's book is a healthy antidote to the prevailing mode of American constitutional scholarship."-Frederick Schauer, Georgetown Law Journal "[Professor Tushnet's] contributions to the debates about constitutional interpretation and insights into the dynamics of constitutional theory and doctrine are invaluable. In the final analysis, he forces us not only to remain intellectually honest but also to question the precepts by which we choose to run our government and live our lives."-Michael J. Gerhardt, Texas Law Review "Red, White, and Blue ranks with Laurence Tribe's Constitutional Choices in its ambition, erudition, and importance. Tushnet's rejection of the five unitary grand theories . . . deserves attention, and, I believe, acclaim."-Philip Bobbitt, Stanford Law Review.
