Books by George Liebmann

Two conflicting developments have recently characterized civic life in the United States

This book commemorates a place and a time in American law teaching, but more importantly, an outlook: the common law tradition

This is a summary of the effects of well-intentioned constitutional doctrines that have given rise to increasingly lawless national politics; and a description of many of the hopeful developments in public policy that will be possible if more restrained judicial policies are adopted.

Presents an outlook on the common law tradition. This book is a collective portrait of five scholars who epitomize the tradition. The focus is Chicago in the 1960s. The five figures considered are Edward H Levi, Harry Kalven, Jr, Karl Llewellyn, Philip Kurland, and Kenneth Culp Davis, who did much to broaden the perspectives of the legal academy.

Solving Problems Without Large Government circumvents sterile discussions of federalism and privatization by discussing the potential role of sub-local government-assisted entities in providing effective and fair access to services.
