"A Few Thoughts on Constitutionalism, Textualism, and Populism," 65 Fordham L. Rev. 1657 (1997)
Abstract
Here is a confession. I am not a theorist, I am not a philosopher. From time to time, I think about and write about the Constitution. I suppose if someone asked me, "What is your constitutional philosophy?" I might say that I am a constitutionalist, a textualist, and a populist. Now, I am, from time to time, more than those things, but let me explain those three words and their triangular interrelation.
