A Convefrsation with Aziz Rana
We have our first guest! We engage in a wide-ranging conversation with Aziz Rana, jumping off from his important book The Constitutional Bind: How Americans Came to Idolize a Document That Fails Them (which we urge you to buy and read). Rana’s book ends before the turn of this century, and our conversation both extends the ideas he develops there (particularly about the connection between the role of the US on the international scene and the US constitutional creed), and takes up his and our thinking about contemporary issues.
