Originalism and Its Discontents

Professor William Marshall

William Rand Kenan Jr. Distinguished Professor of Law at UNC Chapel Hill

 

Professor Marshall will describe the Supreme Court's shift toward a so-called originalist

approach to Constitutional interpretation. His lecture will then ask and analyze three related

questions. A) Is originalism consistent with the Framers own understanding of Constitutional

interpretation? B) What results would originalism lead to – if consistently applied? C) Is the

Supreme Court actually using an originalist understanding to decide key cases?
