Louis Michael Seidman presents a rigorous critique of the American constitutional framework, arguing that the document is fundamentally disconnected from contemporary political reality. By examining the inherent contradictions within the founding text, the author challenges the legitimacy of judicial review and the reliance on an antiquated legal structure to govern a modern, pluralistic society.
