📚📚New book by @cbambrick.bsky.social "Constitutionalizing the Private Sphere: A Comparative Inquiry" with @cambridgeup.bsky.social. The book examines when courts understand private actors, such as private individuals, businesses, schools, and hospitals, to be responsible for constitutional rights.

It's that time yet again!

The research is erudite, the conversation perfect, and the vibes immaculate :)
