Episode Synopsis "#17: The G.I. Generation in the Cycles of Constitutional Time"

Oliver Flint returns to discuss the "G.I. Generation" (born 1901-24), and in particular its impact on American law in the early years of the Burger Court. We examine the unraveling of the New Deal Coalition through the lens of the Supreme Court's conservative retrenchment in the early 1970s. Special attention is paid to the Court's [in]famous 1972 Term.
