Socialism 2022 Conference, Chicago

“How Do We Get a New Constitution”

Panelists: Aziz Rana

The Left’s path to power is blocked by one of the oldest and least democratic founding documents in the world. Will it take a revolution to rewrite our Constitution? The recent Constituent Assembly in Chile may show a way forward.

Aziz Rana is a professor of law at Cornell University.  He is the author of The Two Faces of American Freedom and the forthcoming book, The Constitutional Bind: Why a Broken Document Rules America.
