    A Constitution for All Times

She addresses critical legal issues like voting rights, health care, and gun control, advocating for a dynamic interpretation of the Constitution that adapts to contemporary challenges. By arguing against skepticism surrounding congressional authority, she emphasizes the Constitution's role in safeguarding individual rights and promoting freedom, presenting a compelling case for its evolving nature.

      A Constitution for All Times
    • Democracy Unmoored focuses on populism's negative impact on democracies across the globe, covering not just wealthy democracies like the US and UK but countries like India, Argentina, Poland, and Brazil as well. In virtually every country experiencing a surge in populism, the populists' disregard for procedural norms is eroding the core institutions that uphold democracy. Sweeping in scope, this book provides a novel analysis of one of the defining trends in contemporary world politics.
