A Big Dialogue: Is the Constitution Alive?
Advertisement
John Anderson Media, in association with Australian Dialogues, invites you to a compelling discussion on a question of vital importance to democracy: Is The Constitution Alive?
In an age of rapid social change and contested institutions, who really decides what our founding document means today? And, who should decide? This event will unpack the clash between 'originalism' and the 'living constitution' approaches, exploring how this tension surfaces in the decisions which shape the rights, powers, and limits that govern us all.
Join us for what promises to be a civil and illuminating dialogue featuring a panel of exceptional legal minds: former High Court Justice Michael Kirby, US Court of Appeals Judge Andrew Oldham, and leading constitutional scholars Professor Rosalind Dixon and Professor Nicholas Aroney, moderated by Professor Lisa Burton Crawford.
Event details:
Monday 7th September
5:30pm to 9:00pm
Stranger's Room, NSW Parliament House
6 Macquarie St, Sydney
Food and Drinks included
