We live in a time where the scope of communications, technology and commerce makes this world a smaller place. As the connection between American and international interests intensifies, new concerns develop in our judicial system.

In his new book, The Court and The World: American Law and The New Global Realities, Stephen G. Breyer of the U.S. Supreme Court of the United States addresses the realities and responsibilities the U.S. Supreme Court faces in today’s interconnected world as the Court is now faced with the new responsibility of looking beyond American borders when interpreting American laws.

On Constitution Day, Associate Justice Breyer, an ALI member since 1977, appeared at the National Constitution Center to discuss his recent book release. To view this conversation, click here.

He also recently participated in UCLA School of Law’s Conversation with the Dean where he not only talked about a variety of topics, including The Court and The World.
