The Constitution of 1789: A New Introduction with Law Professor Ilan Wurman

Constitutional scholar Ilan Wurman joins us to discuss his new book, The Constitution of 1789: A New Introduction, offering a fresh look at the original meaning, structure and intent of the U.S. Constitution. Wurman explains how the framers designed a system of limited government, separated powers and federalism that continues to shape today’s legal and political debates. He also explores common misconceptions about the Constitution and why understanding the founding document in its historical context remains essential for Americans today.
