Justice O’Connor’s most impactful opinion, with deep implications for Federalism that, we believe, were the result of a years-in-the-making back and forth with Professor Amar’s ideas and Justice O’Connor’s writings, in majority opinion, dissent, and concurrence.

Once again we post Professor Amar’s first article as a law professor, so central to the scholarly dialogue Justice O’Connor engages in with Akhil’s ideas.
