Description
Everyone is talking about foreign law. No surprise here, because it is the topic of this symposium. But the Justices of the Supreme Court are addressing it in and out of court-Justice Scalia has debated Justice Breyer in a road-show tour and just delivered an endowed lecture on this subject at the American Enterprise Institute; (1) and there is a competing program on the same topic at another law school this weekend. What's all the fuss about? Just because of citation practice in a handful of recent opinions? Come, now. Next, the Justices will start citing law reviews, which have no legal authority in any jurisdiction. Oh--they do cite law reviews! Never mind. Maybe they'll start citing articles in the New York Times. But since when have these citations caused a string of symposia?
