Faculty/Staff Detail

Timothy Delaune, Political Science Department and pre-law advisor, had a peer-reviewed chapter published in the special issue on law and the liberal state, volume 65 of the book series Studies in Law, Politics and Society. His chapter, “Jury Nullification: An Illiberal Defense of Liberty,” examines the practice of American juries in criminal cases acquitting clearly guilty defendants as an exercise of democratic political power contrary to the liberal order, in accordance with the political theory of Carl Schmitt.
