Originalism's Promise helps Americans know their own Constitution and shows why their reverence for it, its Framers, and its legal system, is sound and valuable. The book offers a way out of the bitter fights represented by the Kavanaugh hearings, and marries the Constitution to natural law.
The foundation of the American legal system and democratic culture is its longstanding written Constitution. However, a contentious debate now exists between originalists, who employ the Constitution''s original meaning, and Nonoriginalists, who argue for a living constitution interpretation. The first natural law justification for an originalist interpretation of the American Constitution, Originalism''s Promise presents an innovative foundation for originalism and a novel description of its character. The book provides a deep, rich, and practical explanation of originalism, including the most-detailed originalist theory of precedent in the literature. Of interest to judges, scholars, and lawyers, it will help all Americans better understand their own Constitution and shows why their reverence for it, its Framers, and its legal system, is supported by sound reasons. Originalism''s Promise is a powerful contribution to the most important theory in constitutional interpretation.
