This spring, another workshop will join the bumper crop already on offer at the Law School: the American Legal History Workshop.The workshop builds upon the Law School’s long tradition of exploring the intersections between law and history in America from the colonial period to the present, in the realms of both public and private law. This year’s speakers have produced pathbreaking work on a wide variety of chronological and thematic topics, from the constitutional law of Britain's North American empire, to early American property and tort law, to the twentieth-century civil rights revolution. They are Daniel Hulsebosch, NYU Law School (April 2); Mary Dudziak, USC Gould School of Law (April 16); John Witt, Columbia Law School(April 23); and Claire Priest, Northwestern Law School (May 21).
