Reagan appointed three justices, Sandra Day O’Connor, Antonin Scalia, and Anthony Kennedy, while Bush appointed two, David Souter and Clarence Thomas. Some law students founded what would become the Federalist Society, an organization devoted to fostering conservative principles in the legal system.
Law schools were also seen as bastions of liberal thought, but there began to be some pushback against this. The Supreme Court was still firmly liberal overall at that point, nearing the end of the Warren Burger Court. Reagan ushered in a new era of conservatism when he became president in 1980. Part 1 covers the administrations of Reagan, George H.
After that, the book follows a chronological order starting with the presidency of Ronald Reagan.
