Abstract

Jefferson Powell's recent book, The Moral Tradition of American Constitutionalism, was the point of departure for a series of short papers and conversations held in March of 1996 at the Notre Dame Law School.

The conversation began with a presentation by Professor Joseph Vining. His remarks were followed by a free-flowing conversation, loosely orchestrated by Professor Robinson, among the participants. After a break, the conversation was restarted with a presentation by Professor Maura Ryan, followed once again by a loosely orchestrated conversation. We turn first to Joseph Vining.
