Introduction: State Constitutionalism in the 21st Century
By Gary S. Gildin and Jamison E. Colburn.
State constitutional law is a vibrant, albeit still underappreciated, area of legal study. With this Symposium, we hope that the contours of this field have been expanded, the debate over its use, application, and future grows, and that state constitutional law continues to take its rightful place alongside the federal charter in the continued debate over constitutional jurisprudence in the United States.
