The President and CEO of the National Constitution Center, Jeffrey Rosen, joins us for a timely discussion of his new book, The Pursuit of Liberty. The relevance to today’s dilemmas is matched only by the fascination of the deep historical analysis and amazing characters the book unearths. In the differences that separated Hamilton and Jefferson, Professor Rosen finds the genesis of a divide that he maintains has informed most if not all of American constitutional history. Centralized power versus states’ rights; industrial centers vs rural life; a robust protest culture vs governmental support, and more. We are honored to celebrate publication (today!) of this important book with its distinguished author. CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.
