Connecticut Law Review. 459. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/law_review/459 CONNECTICUT LAW REVIEW VOLUME 52 FEBRUARY 2021 NUMBER 4 Essay The Emerging Genre of The Constitution: Kent Newmyer and the Heroic Age MARY SARAH BILDER In written celebration of Kent Newmyer’s intellectual and collegial influence, this Essay argues that the written constitution was an emerging genre in 1787-1789. Discussions of the Constitution and constitutional interpretation often rest on a set of assumptions about the Constitution that arose in the years and decades after the Constitutional Convention. The most significant one involves the belief that a fixed written document was drafted in 1787 intended in our modern sense as A Constitution. This fundamental assumption is historically inaccurate. The following reflections of a constitutionalist first lay out the argument for considering the Constitution as an emerging genre and then turn to Kent Newmyer’s important influence. The Essay argues that the constitution as a system or frame of government and the instrument were not quite one and the same. This distinction helps to make sense of ten puzzling aspects of the framing era. 1263 The Emerging Genre of The Constitution: Kent Newmyer and the Heroic Age MARY SARAH BILDER * In written celebration of Kent Newmyer’s intellectual and collegial influence, this Essay argues that the written constitution was an emerging genre in 1787-1789.

Barnett* & Evan D. Bernick** The Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment reads: “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privi- leges or immunities of citizens of the United States . .”1 Upon confronting this language, the first question most ask is what exactly are the “privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States”? It was this very question that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg put to attorney Alan Gura during oral argument in McDonald v. City of Chicago,2 as he was urging the Court to revive the Privi- leges or Immunities Clause to protect the right to keep and bear arms.3 “But I really would like you to answer the question that you didn’t have an oppor- tunity to finish answering, and that is: What other .

  • War and Constitution-Making in Revolutionary Massachusetts, 1754-1788 James Fred Hrdlicka Garfield Heights, Ohio B.A. University
    War and Constitution-Making in Revolutionary Massachusetts, 1754-1788 James Fred Hrdlicka Garfield Heights, Ohio B.A. University of Notre Dame, 2010 M.A. University of Virginia, 2012 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Corcoran Department of History University of Virginia August 2016 Abstract Throughout the Revolutionary era, Americans embraced the capacity of constitutional government at all levels to mobilize power to achieve desired ends. This study explores how and why the inhabitants of one province-turned-state looked to the institutions, practices, and authority of constitutional government to address the myriad challenges they faced between the French and Indian War and the ratification of the United States Constitution. In these years, people in Massachusetts viewed constitutions as more than sets of theoretical propositions designed to limit the power of those who ruled, and they appreciated them not only because they provided opportunities to declare inviolable rights. Constitutions also comprised practical plans of government through which the populace could effectively mobilize power during times of greatest strain. War and its burdens thus formed the essential backdrop as inhabitants considered what made for legitimate and effective government. In no other context did government demand so much of them; at no other times were they presented with as many opportunities to consider the nature of their attachments to the state and to each other. This study properly situates the narrative of constitutional development by first examining the process by which authorities worked with the populace to mobilize men and resources for war and the specific contexts of governance in which that process occurred.
