In this edition of The Leaflet, you will meet Stacy Douglas, Associate Professor at Carleton University, which is located in Ottawa, my hometown. You will also meet Jill Goldenziel, Associate Professor at Marine Corps University. You will discover the Top 5 most popular papers in constitutionalism. You will get a sneak peak at a forthcoming book. And you will take a journey back to the year 2012, when United States Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg stirred some controversy in an interview while in Egypt.
As always, I welcome your comments and suggestions at richard@richardalbert.com.
