Laura Weinrib Chair Lecture: Money, Politics, and the Constitution in the “Golden Age” of Capitalism

On the occasion of her appointment as the Fred N. Fishman Professor of Constitutional Law, Professor Laura Weinrib delivered a lecture titled "Money, Politics, and the Constitution in the “Golden Age” of Capitalism."

A legal historian, Professor Weinrib studies how social movements have transformed constitutional categories to pursue political and economic change. She is the author of "The Taming of Free Speech: America’s Civil Liberties Compromise" (Harvard University Press, 2016), which traces the emergence during the first half of the twentieth century of a constitutional and court-centered concept of civil liberties as a defining feature of American democracy. Her articles, essays, and book chapters have explored a wide range of subjects in American legal history, as well as constitutional law, labor law, and law and literature.
