Law and the Protection of Democracy
"This ground-breaking book of essays proposes harmonious uses of public policy and law to protect the rights and interests of people around the world: their freedoms, their creativity, and their environment, against a background of challenges to democracy. It is written in terms of a music of law, in honor of Alfred C. Aman, Jr., a jazzman law professor, Dean emeritus, and distinguished University of Rochester Life Trustee, whose life and work exemplify the highest standards. The essays, written by distinguished judges, administrators, and scholars whom Professor Aman has inspired and mentored, address in new and compelling ways many of the most pressing issues of our time, including environmental protection, voting rights, constitutional originalism, freedom of speech and the press, racial and gender equality, artificial intelligence, and, not least, the importance of mentorship in legal, educational, and other spheres. The over-arching theme charts how the sometimes-unheard music of law can, if ingeniously composed and performed, protect people and democracy. Edited by Yvonne Cripps. Contributors: Nathan D. Alder, Dan Cole, Lloyd Green, Carol Greenhouse, David Hamilton, Jay Krishnan, Tzu-Yi Lin, Christiana Ochoa, Aviva Orenstein, Arantxa Recarte, Lauren Robel, Landyn Rookard, Susan Williams, Elisabeth Zoller"--
