The Nevada Law Journal is pleased to announce Volume 26’s symposium issue, Preserving Democracy: How the U.S. Can Protect Democracy Amidst Constitutional Challenges. This symposium will explore the threats to our democracy, consider the constitutional and statutory reforms necessary to restore and protect democratic governance, and the implications of these solutions for our society, nation, and world.
Ultimately, preserving democracy in the United States requires finding ways to ensure both broad participation and fair representation, while curbing the excesses that threaten our democratic values. As the United States navigates these challenges, it is essential to evaluate whether the intended benefits of democracy are undermined by under or over-extending democracy.
This Nevada Law Journal will explore these, and other specific issues impacting democracy, proposals addressing issues, and implications of potential solutions moving forward.
