Newswise — Williams College political science professor Justin Crowe is available to speak on his area of expertise -- the US Supreme Court and its history, including the impact of Scalia and the process to replace him.
Crowe's research interests include the Supreme Court, constitutional law and theory, American political and constitutional development, American political thought and culture, and American political institutions. More specifically, most of his work has focused on the role of the Constitution and the Supreme Court in American political development, with published articles on the augmentation of judicial authority during the 1920s, historical trends in the tenure of Supreme Court justices, and the appointment politics of the antebellum Supreme Court. His book, "Building the Judiciary: Law, Courts, and the Politics of Institutional Development" (Princeton University Press, 2012), examines the causes and consequences of institutional development of the federal judiciary — especially, but not exclusively, the Supreme Court — from the Founding to the present. He is currently at work on projects about vice regulation in the Progressive era Supreme Court and constitutional amendments as agents of political change.
Crowe can be reached at [email protected] or by calling 413-597-2418.
