Utopia And The Law And Literature Movement, Michael P. Malloy
UTOPIA500
Dr. Malloy kicked off the UTOPIA500 project with a presentation on Jan. 21, 2016. His paper, Utopia and the Law and Literature Movement, marked the quincentennial of the publication of Thomas More's novel Utopia in 1516. Dr. Malloy explored the meaning and implications of the concepts of utopia and dystopia. He argued, with colorful graphic support, that More's novel was a precursor to post-modernist literature, and that in our own time there has been a linguistic transformation of the concept of utopia to contemporary meanings that are often entirely independent of More's novel. Dr. Malloy concluded that More's novel is …

Recall, a court's “inquiry into the propriety of a state election law depends upon the extent to which a challenged regulation burdens First and Fourteenth Amendment rights."

The extent of the burden is tremendous for the reasons enunciated, in particular how the requirement tramples on the right of freedom of political of association. The 12,500 signature requirement severely burdens First and Fourteenth Amendment rights and are not narrowly drawn to advance Illinois's interest. Cf. Storer, 415 U.S. …
