Abstract:
Part of the U.S. Senate confirmation hearings on the nomination of Robert Bork to the Supreme Court. A panel of law professors expresses opposition to the nomination. Prof. Fiss calls Bork's judicial philosophy "majoritarianism" because of its de-emphasis of individual liberties. Prof. Grey addresses five "Bork myths" arising from the confirmation hearings. He concludes that Bork's academic writing cannot be separated from his probable actions as a Supreme Court justice, that Bork's views have not changed, and that they are not tentative. Prof. Resnick looks at Bork's character as anappeals court judge and finds it lacking.
