American Dissenters Across Generations: The Legacy of the Harlans

COURSE DETAILS
Perhaps no two justices better serve as exemplars of the tradition of the principled dissenter than do John Marshall Harlan and his grandson and namesake, John Marshall Harlan II. Both men would serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, and each left a distinct legacy, most notably in the caliber of their dissenting opinions.
Separated by two generations, the Harlans, as men and jurists, were each as fascinating as they were distinct from one another. Their legacies, whether considered separately or in tandem, represent the finest of the American judicial tradition. They were more than legal theorists; they were judges who grappled with the cases and controversies that came before the Court, as well as with fundamental questions that still matter.
Primarily because of their dissents, the Harlans have entered the pantheon among the most influential U.S. Supreme Court justices.
