It includes contributions by Dworkin, conservative Judge Richard Posner, Harvard Law School's Lani Guinier, the University of Chicago Law School's Cass Sunstein, New York University law professor Richard Pildes, historian Arthur Schlesinger, Jr, Berkeley political scientist Nelson Polsby, and Harvard's Lawrence Tribe, who argued Vice President Al Gore's case before the Supreme Court. Tribe's original essay combines analysis with a personal reflection on the impact the Court's decision has had on his own attitude toward the Court, constitutional law, and teaching. The book also includes a new introduction by Dworkin, assessing the legal, political, and ethical legacy of the election, and features a discussion of policy proposals that would ensure meaningful election reform.
