Here's the announcement, from the NYU Federalist Society.
TOMORROW (Wednesday) @ 4:30 in Vanderbilt 204
David Bernstein Law Professor at GMU and Blogger at the Volokh
Conspiracy
Speaking about his forthcoming book Rehabilitating Lochner --
Lochner v. New York is a famous Supreme Court case from 1905 that
invalidated a maximum hours law under an implicit Constitutional
principle of liberty of contract. Lochner since has become one of
the most reviled and infamous cases in history, symbolizing
judicial overreaching and activism in the name of ideology.
Professor Bernstein's forthcoming book, Rehabilitating Lochner,
proposes to do exactly what the title attests.
There will be cupcakes!
The book will also be the subject of NYU's legal history colloquium
earlier in the afternoon, so it's going to be day full of Lochner for
me.
