Kermit Roosevelt examines the persistent tension between originalism and the evolving interpretation of the United States Constitution. By deconstructing the rhetoric surrounding judicial activism, the author argues that the judiciary serves a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity of the American legal system. This analysis provides a rigorous framework for understanding how courts navigate the balance between historical precedent and contemporary societal needs.
