Justice Stephen Breyer

To mark the paperback release of the New York Times bestseller, Reading the Constitution: Why I Chose Pragmatism, Not Textualism, former Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court Stephen Breyer offers a provocative analysis of the textualist philosophy of the current Supreme Court’s supermajority and makes the case for a more pragmatic approach of the Constitution.

Justice Breyer will be in conversation with Neal Katyal, former Acting Solicitor General of the United States. Katyal is currently the Paul and Patricia Saunders Professor of National Security Law at Georgetown Law and is a partner at Milbank LLP. He has argued 52 cases before the Supreme Court of the U.S.
