Please help me get the word out about the new websites for Legal Theory Blog and the Legal Theory Lexicon. Reposting here and on other social media sites is great. It would be especially helpful if law school faculty members could send an email to their colleagues with the new addresses.

New piece in Penn Law Review - “The Abuses of History in Constitutional Interpretation” - on @jackbalkin.bsky.social's (characteristically engaging) new book. The piece is short, esp. for me! Still, I read my own piece so that you wouldn't have to. The short version, in 4 strokes...

Beautiful tribute to Dick Fallon from Mike Dorf. I was one of the many, many beneficiaries of Dick's generosity, and was honored and excited to work w/him & Mike when they asked me to join their con law casebook after Fred Schauer passed. A huge personal and professional loss.

I gave a talk (in 2013) about when/why academics should & shouldn't care about intellectual diversity. More personal than my usual fare (& the most readable thing I've written--not saying that's a high bar)... 1/9 x.com/JoyceCarolOa...
