On 21 June 1788 (236 years ago today!), the United States Constitution officially became law when little New Hampshire, the first of Britain’s North American colonies to establish an independent government and state constitution (see here), became the ninth state to ratify our new national charter. To commemorate this moment in North American history, I am reblogging my post from last year on this day, which contains a chronological listing of all of my constitutional law papers, to which list I should now add my forthcoming paper “Gödel’s Interbellum” (to be published this fall).
