Can the Constitution Still Unite Us? A Conversation with Yuval Levin

During an era of broad political dissatisfaction, what is the history and role of the Constitution? Does the Constitution still have the power to unite us? Dr. Yuval Levin joins Madison's Notes to discuss his forthcoming book American Covenant: How the Constitution Unified Our Nation ― and Could Again (Basic Books, 2024). Along the way, he delves into key American figures from James Madison to Woodrow Wilson and the reasons for our present discord.
