Professor Kunal Parker, associate dean for intellectual life and dean’s distinguished scholar, recently published his new book, "The Turn to Process." The book explores the massive reorientation of American legal, political, and economic thinking between 1870 and 1970. Over this period, American conceptions of law, democracy, and markets went from being oriented around truths, ends, and foundations to being oriented around methods, processes, and techniques.
Parker recently spoke about his new book on Miami Law’s podcast, The Explainer. Listen to the podcast here.
In addition to his new book, Parker has published two other books: "Making Foreigners: Immigration and Citizenship Law in America" (New York: Cambridge University Press, 2015), and "Common Law, History, and Democracy in America, 1790 - 1900: Legal Thought Before Modernism" (Cambridge University Press, 2011).
Parker’s teaching areas and interests include American Legal History, Estates and Trusts, Immigration and Nationality Law, and Property.
