The Constitution as political theory
>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=IC1Q33KrsmI
The US Constitution is “the supreme law of the land” that establishes the framework of the federal government, determines its powers, and delineates a set of basic rights. But beyond its primary legal role, the Constitution — with the supporting commentary of “The Federalist Papers” — may be counted one of the major interlocutors in the discipline of political theory, engaging many of the fundamental questions of political life and entering into dialogue with other well-known authors and positions. • Please join us for the third-annual Walter Berns Constitution Day Lecture as James Ceaser, Harry F. Byrd Professor of Politics at the University of Virginia, explores some of the Constitution’s most significant contributions to political theory, focusing on themes that have been largely unexamined in current scholarship. • Subscribe AEI's YouTube Channel • http://www.youtube.com/user/AEIVideos... • • Like us on Facebook • / aeionline • • Follow us on Twitter • / aei • • For More Information • http://www.aei.org • The Constitution as political theory • Third-party photos, graphics, and video clips in this video may have been cropped or reframed.
