Over at Balkanization, Professor James Fleming has a touching eulogy honoring Ronald Dworkin, see here ^[1].  Professor Fleming ^[2] is The Honorable Frank R. Kenison Distinguished Scholar in Law, Associate Dean for Intellectual Life, and Professor of Law at Boston University School of Law.  It’s a fitting tribute, all the more so given that Fleming has enriched Dworkin’s life-long project of taking rights seriously and, like Dworkin, has been a extraordinary guide in helping us understand the moral complexities of pressing constitutional issues.  New week, we shall be talking about Fleming and Linda McClain’s new book, Ordered Liberty: Rights, Responsibilities, and Virtues ^[3], which develops a civic liberalism that takes responsibilities and civic virtues – as well as rights – seriously.
