Harvard University Professor and former Harvard Law School dean Martha Minow argues that key preconditions for self-government — education, access to reliable news, security against lethal violence, and trust in legal and economic systems — are in short supply, and that the constitutional system itself can stand in the way. Drawing on her forthcoming book, she examines why these ingredients are in jeopardy and what concrete steps could help.
