  • The John M. Olin Fellowships and the Advancement of Conservatism in Legal Academia
    THE JOHN M. OLIN FELLOWSHIPS AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF CONSERVATISM IN LEGAL ACADEMIA “[I]t is merely a question of time until the views now held by the intellectuals become the governing force of politics.”1—F.A. Hayek INTRODUCTION In his 2008 book The Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement, Johns Hopkins Professor Steven M. Teles stated, “It is still too early to tell whether the [John M.] Olin Fellows2 program has been effective, and in any case it is very difficult to disentangle the impact of the program from the influence of a changed le- gal culture or greater willingness of law schools to consider hir- ing conservatives.”3 The fellowship program, which provides conservatives or moderates interested in entering the legal academy with a one to two year, fully-funded position at a law school,4 is a joint venture of sorts between the Federalist Society and the John M. Olin Foundation, an organization better known in law schools for its advancement of law and econom- ics programs. Since 1997, the John M. Olin Fellowship has sought to encourage and assist conservatives and libertarians in becoming law professors.5 In investigating the theory that a changed legal culture at least partially explained the John M. Olin Fellows’ placement success- es in the academy, Professor Teles looked to Harvard Law School and cited then-Dean Elena Kagan’s hiring of three con- servatives to the law school faculty—Professors John F. Man- ning, Jack Goldsmith, and Adrian Vermeule.6 During her tenure, 1. F.A. Hayek, The Intellectuals and Socialism, in THE INTELLECTUALS: A CONTRO- VERSIAL PORTRAIT 371 (George B.

LaPiana New York Law School, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: http://digitalcommons.nyls.edu/fac_other_pubs Part of the Legal Education Commons Recommended Citation 24 Law and History Review 690-692 (2006) This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Faculty Scholarship at DigitalCommons@NYLS. It has been accepted for inclusion in Other Publications by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@NYLS. 690 Law and History Review, Fall 2006 simply the result of editorial choices made for the second edition. For example, Employment Division v. Smith, the 1990 case that wrenched the free exercise clause back to its Reynolds v. United States roots, is inexplicably omitted, as is the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the Religious Land Use and Institutional- ized Persons Act, the federal laws spawned by Smith that have triggered important litigation concerning the scope of Congress's power to enforce the substance of the Fourteenth Amendment. To be sure, the essence of these developments can be gleaned from other entries, but one wonders about the wisdom of the editorial choice inherent in these omissions. It is easy to be a critic, but as Theodore Roosevelt put it, the credit belongs to the man in the arena. Much credit, then, goes to the editors of and contributors to the Oxford Companion to the Supreme Court of the United States. This encyclopedia endures as a valuable reference tool that will continue to be of aid to everyone interested in the work of the Supreme Court.

    LAW AND THE HUNDRED-YEAR LIFE† Anne Alstott* I want to begin with a fact. A fact that stunned me when I heard it, and a fact that motivates this lecture. Here it is: “the majority of children born in rich countries today can expect to live to more than 100.” Put another way, more than 50% of babies born in the United States today will be alive one hundred years from now.1 This isn’t a fringe statistic. It’s not from the National Enquirer. It’s a statistical proJection from social scientists at Berkeley and the Max Planck Anne Alstott is the Jacquin D. Bierman Professor in Taxation at Yale Law School. An expert in taxation and social policy, she was named a professor at Yale Law School in 1997 and orig- inally named the Jacquin D. Bierman Professor of Taxation in 2004. She served as deputy dean in 2002 and 2004 and has won the Yale Law Women teaching award three times. From 2008 to 2011, she was the Manley O. Hudson Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. Prior to coming to Yale, she taught at Columbia Law and before that, served as an attorney-advisor in the Treasury Department’s Office of Tax Legislative Counsel. Her books include; NO EXIT: WHAT PARENTS OWE CHILDREN AND WHAT SOCIETY OWES PARENTS (Oxford University Press, 2004); THE STAKEHOLDER SOCIETY (with Bruce Ackerman, Yale University Press, 1999); and TAXATION IN SIX CONCEPTS: A STUDENT’S GUIDE (CCH, 2015).
