«On Reading the Constitution» is the constitutional law essay by Laurence Tribe and Michael Dorf, published by Harvard University Press in paperback.
The United States Constitution employs open terms such as «liberty», «property» and «equal protection of the laws». The authors argue that it cannot mean whatever each interpreter wishes and use literary and mathematical analogies to explain how it should be read today without falling into arbitrary readings.
The work derives from the Tanner Lectures delivered by Laurence Tribe at the University of Utah in 1986 and from a 1990 article co-authored with Michael Dorf.
A reference work for students and scholars of constitutional law, political science and United States history.
