Teaching Constitutional Law, Administrative Law, And Health Law As Presidential Administrations Change, Renée M. Landers
Saint Louis University Law Journal
When elections bring about changes in the political party of the president, the shifts frequently involve a change in the philosophies that inform the approach to governing. In teaching constitutional law, administrative law, and health law, this author cautions students to consider the political content of agency actions underlying the judicial opinions studied. Examining the political and discretionary judgment government officials exercise may provide an explanation for the results or an analysis when the law does not seem to account for the agency action or court decision. This Article examines the opportunities available to an incoming administration to undo the …
Teaching Constitutional Law After The Trump Presidency, Joel K. Goldstein
Teaching Constitutional Law After The Trump Presidency, Joel K. Goldstein
Saint Louis University Law Journal
Teaching Constitutional Law will not, and should not, be the same after the presidency of Donald Trump. President Trump conducted his presidency in a manner which disregarded constitutional limits and assaulted basic constitutional principles. At the most conventional level for Constitutional Law courses, the Supreme Court generated new doctrinal responses to some of Trump’s presidential acts. Moreover, Trump’s presidency engaged non-judicial actors in considering how relatively obscure constitutional barriers operated, such as the Emoluments and Pardon Clauses, provisions regarding presidential inability and impeachment, and even segments of the Twelfth Amendment related to the role of the Senate president during the …

Constitutional Fracticality: Structure And Coherence In The Nation’S Supreme Law, Daniel M. Braun
Constitutional Fracticality: Structure And Coherence In The Nation’S Supreme Law, Daniel M. Braun
Saint Louis University Public Law Review
Yale mathematician, Benoît B. Mandelbrot, revolutionized the way in which we view and understand the natural world. Where earlier visionaries were only able to see mathematical “monsters,” Mandelbrot was able to discern nature’s geometric masterpiece. This dramatic breakthrough allowed him to identify and comprehend patterns and shapes that no one had previously understood and led him to develop the field of fractal geometry. Similar patterns, this article contends, are deeply embedded in the U.S. Constitution, and the metaphor of fractals, therefore, enables us to significantly bolster our understanding of the nation’s supreme law. This article, thus, develops the fractal theory …

The Theoretical Constitutional Shape (And Shaping) Of American National Security Law, Robert F. Blomquist
The Theoretical Constitutional Shape (And Shaping) Of American National Security Law, Robert F. Blomquist
Saint Louis University Public Law Review
In order to fathom the theoretical shape of the American national security constitutional system, and to appreciate how that system should be shaped in the future, it is vital to conceptualize the legal field of American national security law as the interaction of four constitutive dimensions. Initially the factual context involves two overarching general concerns: first, the maintenance of the Nation’s strategic advantage over challengers, competitors, and threats to America’s future; and second, the remarkable strategic responsibility of presidents of the United States to deftly shift from one serious, potentially catastrophic, crisis to the next. The second dimension is the …
