My father played an immensely influential role in my childhood. Shortly after I was born, he founded the Taipei Institute of Jurisprudence, published a legal newspaper, and gathered a group of law students who both admired and feared him. Before I even started school, I often accompanied him to his office: first riding a bike from our home, then taking the bus into the city, and finally walking through a long underground passage. The dim corridor was always lined with toys and dolls that drew children's eyes. With their big round eyes, the dolls seemed to be speaking to me. Each time we passed, I would beg my father to buy me one. Although he loved me dearly and had already given me dolls, the then-popular Knight Rider toy car, and even a fire truck, he eventually realized his wallet was “bleeding” too quickly. He began to resist my pleas, sometimes having no choice but to drag me out of the passageway as I wailed and sobbed.我的童年裡，爸爸是一個極具影響力的角色。他在我出生不久後創辦了台北法學研究社，出版法學報紙，並擁有一群敬畏他的法學生。還沒開始上學時，我常常跟著他去辦公室：先從家裡騎腳踏車，再搭公車轉車，經過一條長長的地下道。那裡昏黃的走廊上總擺滿了吸引小孩的玩具和洋娃娃。洋娃娃大大的眼睛彷彿在對我說話，每次經過，我都忍不住撒嬌要爸爸買給我。爸爸雖然疼我，在那之前已經給我買了洋娃娃、當時最火紅的李麥克的跑車還有消防車，當他發現錢包「失血」過快後，開始學會忍住不買，有幾次甚至只能硬拖著哭得撕心裂肺的我走出地下道。⸻In the office, my father was strict and stern. If students whispered during class, he might throw an eraser at them, often accompanied by a harsh curse. His students both respected and feared him, but I was the only one who dared to talk back. To curry favor with me, they would slip me pudding and Yakult, making me feel like a little princess with special privileges every day.在辦公室裡，爸爸嚴格又嚴肅。學生們稍有不慎在課堂中說話，就可能被他一個板擦丟過去，還伴隨著一句粗話。學生們對他又敬又怕，但我卻是唯一敢頂嘴的人。學生們為了討好我，常塞給我布丁和養樂多，我每天都像個小公主一樣，享受著特權。⸻One day, while playing with a lighter in the office, I accidentally burned a corner of the wall. My father scolded me harshly in front of his students. Tears streamed down my face, but I defiantly retorted, “If you're so cruel to your favorite daughter, how can you call yourself the president of the Institute of Jurisprudence?” He froze on the spot. Later, he often retold the story to friends as a joke, saying that while the law emphasized both logic and emotion, his four-year-old daughter had managed to silence him with “emotion.”有一次，我在辦公室裡玩打火機，不小心燒黑了牆角。爸爸當著學生的面狠狠斥責我，我委屈得眼淚直流，卻不甘示弱地回嘴：「你對你最愛的女兒都這麼兇，還算什麼法學研究社的社長？」這句話讓他當場愣住。事後，他常把這個故事當成笑話對朋友講，法律講求情理，他當年竟被四歲的女兒用「情」反駁得啞口無言。⸻Looking back, these interactions with my father not only nurtured my debating skills but also taught me the power of having a voice—it could challenge authority and even make the sternest figures pause. More importantly, I came to realize that his strictness was not devoid of love. On the contrary, it was because of his deep love that he dared to show me his truest self and guide me with both firmness and care. My father's love and sternness, interwoven like two forces, pushed me forward while protecting me, shaping the person I have become today.回頭看，那些與爸爸的互動，不僅讓我從小培養了辯論能力，也讓我明白「聲音」的力量——它可以挑戰權威，甚至讓嚴肅的人停下腳步。更重要的是，我逐漸體會到，爸爸的嚴厲並不是沒有愛，相反地，正是因為他深愛我，才願意用最真實的樣子陪我成長。父親的愛與嚴厲，就像兩股交織的力量，一方面鞭策著我，一方面也守護著我，塑造了我今天的模樣。我的網站：https://flywithlily.com

In our new podcast, Pursuit: The Founders' Guide to Happiness, Jeffrey Rosen explores the founders' lives with the historians who know them best. Plus, filmmaker Ken Burns shares his daily practice of self-reflection.  The “pursuit of happiness” is one of the most famous phrases in American history. When America's founders wrote it in the Declaration of Independence, they intended it to mean happiness through lifelong learning and self-improvement.  To start our series, Jeffrey Rosen and Robert P. George, the McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University, trace how the meaning of the pursuit of happiness has changed over time. Then, American filmmaker Ken Burns, who has spent his “entire life trying to figure out the United States,” shares how daily self-reflection has given him new perspectives on what the founders faced 250 years ago.    Follow Pursuit: The Founders' Guide to Happiness on Apple Podcast and Spotify.  Stay Connected and Learn More  Questions or comments about the show?

Perimenopause brings a lot of changes but there is good news! You see, when you understand what's actually happening in your body, you can take back control.   In this week's episode of The Perimenopause Solution, I sit down with Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN to unpack the critical metabolic and biological shifts that happen during perimenopause, and what you can do right now to support your body, energy, and long-term health.   In the episode, we cover: The surprising connection between your hormones, muscle, and metabolism How to spot the early signs of imbalance before they spiral out of control  When HRT makes sense vs. when it might not What you can start doing today to support your energy, mood, and longevity   Midlife isn't a downhill slide but an invitation to approach your health in a whole new way. You have options, and this episode will help you understand them.   Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN, is a Registered Nurse, Health Coach, Menopause Educator, and Women's Health Advocate with over 30 years of experience in healthcare. She is a bold voice in the midlife health movement, calling out the outdated belief that it's all downhill after 40—and replacing it with something far more powerful: the truth that a woman's next chapter can be her strongest, healthiest, and most vibrant yet. Jill holds a Master of Jurisprudence in Health Law and is a certified health coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN). She has completed advanced training through the School of Applied Functional Medicine and the Institute of Bioidentical Medicine, with deep expertise in menopause, hormones, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). As Education Lead at Respin Health, founded by Halle Berry, Jill combines science-based education with deep compassion and clinical insight, helping women understand their bodies, advocate for their health, and make informed, confident decisions. Her work is rooted in the belief that decline is not inevitable—it's simply what happens when we fail to adapt to our bodies' needs in midlife and as we age. Jill is the co-creator of two personalized Menopause Health & Hormone Optimization programs, the creator of The Beginner's Guide to Hormone Replacement Therapy, and a trusted clinician known for making complex topics clear, approachable, and actionable. Most recently, Jill was featured in the groundbreaking menopause docuseries "Four Days," created by filmmaker Charles Mattocks and a passionate team of experts and women willing to share their stories. The series was born from a quiet question: What if we finally changed the conversation, and turned into a movement? Because the silence around menopause has gone on too long. And because women deserve to be seen, heard, and supported in this next chapter of life. The docuseries is expected to air in late fall 2025.  Jill's Links:  Website Instagram Respin Health HRT Telehealth Programs for women in the following states: California, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Arizona, Illinois, and Ohio   Watch on Youtube HERE.   Mentioned in this episode: HRT Made Simple™ - Learn how to confidently speak to your doctor about the benefits of hormone replacement therapy so you can set yourself up for symptom-free, unmedicated years to come without feeling confused, dismissed, or leaving the medical office minus your HRT script.

This monograph outlines the core principles of equity and trusts in Sanskrit jurisprudence (Dharmaśāstra) and traces their application in the practical legal administration of religious and charitable endowments throughout Indian history. Dharmaśāstra describes phenomena that, in Anglo-American jurisprudence, are associated with courts of equity: the management of religious and charitable trusts; and the guardianship of those who lack legal capacity. Drawing on Sanskrit jurisprudential and philosophical texts, ancient inscriptions, Persian legal documents, colonial-era law reports, and contemporary case law, Equity and Trusts in Sanskrit Jurisprudence demonstrates that India's rulers have drawn on rich and venerable Sanskrit jurisprudential principles of equity and trusts in their efforts to regulate religious and charitable endowments. This book presents the history of India as a history of trusts, revealing how the contemporary law of Hindu religious endowments is subtended by a rich mélange of Sanskritic, Persianate, British, and constitutional jurisprudential principles.

In this groundbreaking episode, Abdullah Hashem (Aba Al-Sadiq) unveils the first chapter of a powerful new series on Divine Jurisprudence, beginning with the covenant of Adam. Drawing from deep scriptural truths and ancient wisdom, this series reveals how God's law has unfolded through seven covenants—from Adam to Muhammad, and now to the final divine covenant in our own time. We explore the original commandments given to humanity: the obligation to obey the divinely appointed leader of every age, and the sacred call to marry and multiply. These foundational laws, first revealed to Adam, are re-established today through the companions of the Will—Imam Al-Mahdi, Ahmed Al-Hassan, and Abdullah Hashem himself. Join us on this spiritual journey through the divine law, as we uncover the essence of true submission, divine leadership, and the path to establishing paradise on Earth.

In this week's episode of then & now, we are joined by John Mikhail, Carroll Professor of Jurisprudence at Georgetown University Law Center, for a deep dive into the controversial theory of the unitary executive. Rooted in the Constitution's Vesting Clause, this theory asserts that the president holds centralized control over the executive branch. While the theory has longstanding roots in constitutional debates, the Trump administration has embraced and expanded this interpretation in unprecedented ways. John Mikhail traces the theory's historical origins, its legal evolution, and its increasingly assertive use under Trump 2.0. He examines how this broad view of executive power threatens the traditional balance among the three branches of government and raises pressing concerns about the future of checks and balances in the American constitutional system.John Mikhail is the Carroll Professor of Jurisprudence at Georgetown University Law Center, where he has taught since 2004.  He teaches and writes on a variety of topics, including constitutional law, moral psychology, moral and legal theory, cognitive science, legal history, criminal law, torts, international law, and human rights. Professor Mikhail is the author of Elements of Moral Cognition: Rawls' Linguistic Analogy and the Cognitive Science of Moral and Legal Judgment (Cambridge University Press, 2011) and over fifty articles, chapters, essays, and reviews in peer-edited journals, law reviews, and anthologies.Further ReadingThe Vesting ClauseThe Unitary Executive Theory (UET), Cornell Law School

Many American Jews know this is a pretext for the administration's actions against universities, law firms, and other organizations.Migrants' social security numbers are being deactivated into 'death files', thus making them invisible, and unable to use banks, get employment, or any similar actions.

The Charles Evans Hughes Visiting Chair of Government and Jurisprudence in the Department of Political Science Stephanie Miner joins the podcast to share her experiences as former mayor of the City of Syracuse. Miner discusses the ups and downs of running one of New York's largest cities in this all new episode.

On this episode of Anchored, Jeremy and special guest co-host, CLT Chief of Staff  Katie Prefontaine, are joined by Cornel West and Robert George. Cornel serves as a professor of philosophy in Christian Practice at Union Theological Seminary and is an emeritus professor of African-American Studies at Princeton University. Robert is a professor of Jurisprudence and the director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University. The two discuss their deep bond of friendship, built on the basis of pursuing truth and fostering intellectual humility, explored in their recent book Truth Matters. They discuss how to cultivate these relationships and bring people to the table for these conversations. They conclude by examining the importance of studying both the progressive and conservative traditions for the flourishing of the individual and society as a whole.

In this conversation, Keltie Maguire and philosopher, Ruth Chang, explore the complexities of hard choices, and in particular, the decision to have kids or remain childfree. They discuss... The idea of drifting into decisions — and why it's a valid decision tactic. That hard choices aren't about finding the right answer, but about understanding one's values and making a commitment to a chosen path.  The nature of commitment and decision-making, and that commitment is not merely a rational choice based on pros and cons but an active agency that transforms our values and perspectives. Why commitment involves understanding who you can become, not just who you want to be. Plus, the importance of self-reflection in understanding who we can commit to becoming. The necessity of embracing uncertainty in the decision-making process. ...and lots more! About Ruth: Ruth Chang holds the Chair of Jurisprudence at the University of Oxford. Her expertise concerns philosophical questions relating to the nature of value, value conflict, decision-making, rationality, love, and human agency. She has shared her research in public venues including radio, television, and newspaper outlets such as National Public Radio, the BBC, National Geographic, and The New York Times. The institutions she lectured at or consulted for include Google, the CIA, the World Bank, the US Navy, the Bhutan government, Big Pharma, and many businesses and financial institutions.

In Berkeley Talks episode 221, American historian Heather Cox Richardson joins Dylan Penningroth, a UC Berkeley professor of law and history, in a conversation about the historical evolution of the Republican Party, and the state of U.S. politics and democracy today. Richardson, a professor of history at Boston College, is the author of the popular nightly newsletter Letters from an American, in which she explains current political developments and relates them to historical events. With more than 3 million daily readers, Richardson says Letters has grown a “community around the world of people who are trying to reestablish a reality-based politics.”Topics in the conversation include: The origins of the Republican Party: President Lincoln had a vision of a government serving the common person, including equal access to resources like education and land. After the Civil War, Republicans under Lincoln created a national taxation system, which former Confederates argued was an unfair redistribution of wealth from white people to Black people and from rich people to poor people.The backlash after Lincoln: After Lincoln, there was a rise of robber barons — industrialists whose business practices were considered ruthless and unethical — and a group of people who argued that intervention for ordinary people was a form of socialism. Wealth began to concentrate at the top and led to an inevitable crash. As a consequence, the Republican Party had to repeatedly rethink the way it did business and the way it worked.How Donald Trump changed the Republican Party: Richardson says President Trump took oligarchs' language about government overreach and "stripped away the veneer," appealing directly to racism and sexism. This empowered a new base of supporters and led to a movement encouraging violence and anti-authority sentiment. What gives Richardson hope: Richardson says the current moment in politics reminds her of the 1850s, when it appeared that elite enslavers, who made up 1% of the U.S. population, had completely taken over the country. But over the next decade, the nation went on to elect Lincoln and form a government by the people and for the people. “I believe that all of us coming together in the 21st century can do it again,” she says. The event took place on Feb. 26 in Zellerbach Hall, and was presented by Cal Performances and the Graduate Division at UC Berkeley as part of the Charles M. and Martha Hitchcock Lectures.More about the speakers: Richardson has written for The Washington Post, The New York Times and The Guardian, and is the author, most recently, of the best-selling 2023 book Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America. Penningroth is the author of the award-winning 2023 book Before the Movement: The Hidden History of Black Civil Rights. He serves as associate dean of the Program in Jurisprudence and Social Policy at UC Berkeley Law; his scholarship focuses on African American and legal history.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts).Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Screenshot from a UC Berkeley video.

The afikra podcast is back with a new season hosted by Mikey Muhanna. We kick off with an episode in partnership with Fujifilm and Gulf Photo Plus with Iranian academic, philosophical author, and artist Nadia Maftouni, who delves into the groundbreaking contributions of Ibn al-Haytham to modern science. Known as the father of modern optics, Ibn al-Haytham's extensive work on camera obscura, empirical science, and mathematics laid the foundation for future scientific advancements. Maftouni explores his methodology, significant works like the "Book of Optics," and how his concepts influenced later scholars such as German astronomer and mathematician Johannes Kepler. Additionally, Maftouni sheds light on Ibn al-Haytham's time under house arrest and his enduring impact on science and philosophy.00:00 Introduction01:34 Historical Background of Camera Obscura03:16 Ibn al-Haytham's Contributions to Optics04:50 Ibn al-Haytham's Methodology and Scientific Approach06:49 Ibn al-Haytham's Influence on Later Scientists07:51 House Arrest and Major Works12:07 Philosophical Views and Scientific Method16:19 Transmission of Knowledge to Europe17:45 Ibn al-Haytham's Legacy and Influence31:44 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsNadia Maftouni is an Iranian academic, philosopher, author, and artist.

Academia is almost entirely dominated by the left. Robert George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton, has thrived in it as a strong Catholic. But is it possible for conservatives and Christians to follow the same path today? What are the signs of optimism both for conservatives in academia, but also for a healthier climate for academia itself? George joins me to discuss these topics and what's he's personally been doing to push academia in a healthier direction.Subscribe to my newsletter: https://www.aaronrenn.com/

Marco was born in Chicago but has also lived in Mexico City and San Antonio. He holds two bachelor's degrees in English and Psychology, as well as a Master of Jurisprudence. With 15 years of experience in the corporate sector, his roles have spanned product management, operations, governance, and call center positions. In 2011, after the birth of his first daughter, Marco began to feel ill. For nine years, he was told it was anxiety, but nothing seemed to help. It wasn't until 2020 that he was finally diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. From 2011 to 2022, Marco struggled with agoraphobia, but with the help of medication, therapy, and supportive friends, he was able to overcome these limitations. During his time at home, Marco began writing a collection of fictional short stories. Originally, he intended to gift the stories to his daughters, the youngest of whom was born in 2013. However, after sharing the stories with friends, he was encouraged to consider publishing them. In 2023, the stories were published as a novel titled Within Normal Limits. Shortly after its release, the novel became an Amazon Best Seller in the Multiple Sclerosis category. The novel follows a fictional version of Marco as he navigates struggles with religion, relationships, fatherhood, and connecting with others who are also dealing with their own solitude. After the publication, Marco began doing readings. Though the book is quite sad, Marco (the author) is not, which led to the readings evolving into comedy routines. This eventually opened the door for Marco to participate in stand-up comedy around town.     Book Synopsis:   This gripping collection of stories tells the story of Marco, a young man diagnosed with multiple sclerosis who must confront the harsh reality of his prognosis. Set against the backdrop of a life being slowly taken away from him, the reader is taken on a journey of strength, courage, and resilience as Marco learns to appreciate the beauty of life. With his relationships pushed to the limit, Marco must find the courage to face his illness and discover the weight of hope.   https://www.wnlmarco.com https://www.instagram.com/wnlmarco https://a.co/d/8ITF5BA (Amazon link to purchase, although folks can get it through Target, Barnes and Noble, and a ton of other online retailers).

We are joined by the esteemed Princeton University Professor of Jurisprudence (aka the study of law), Dr. Robert George, to discuss the difficulties and counter-ideologies of our time and what men must do to stand against these false truths. Robert also shares with us a powerful story of his father's love and how continually witnessing this strength and kindness set the foundation for him and his four brothers to live as virtuous men. He speaks on how to engage with people of polar opposite beliefs and how to constantly champion truth without compromising one's character. With twenty-three honorary doctorates to his name, Dr. George brings a wealth of knowledge and insight to our discussion, ensuring that his profound wisdom will resonate with you as it did with us.

He also served as chairman of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom and the President's Council on Civil Rights. Dr. George is also the author of many books including Conscience and its Enemies and Making Moral Men. He is a former Judicial Fellow at the Supreme Court of the United States where he received the Justice Tom C. Clark Award. He has degrees from Oxford University, Swarthmore College, and Harvard University.In our conversation we talked about the results of the 2024 election and what direction Donald Trump is taking the Republican Party. We also talked about whether or not the Republican Party can be considered a Conservative Party any longer. We discussed post liberalism and Dr. George's political philosophy related to natural law. We concluded the discussion with a conversation about the purpose of education and Dr. Robert P. George's friendship with Cornel West.

Why is it often difficult to find pleasure and joy in God? If the chief end of man is to know and enjoy God, why do so many of us fall short? In this episode, Sean and Scott talk with Biola professor Thaddeus Williams about these questions and his new book Revering God. Dr. Williams argues that a deep-dive into the theological understanding of the reverence of God can transform our relationship with God and allow us to live in awe-inspired devotion. Thaddeus J. Williams (Ph.D., Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam) loves enlarging students' understanding and enjoyment of Jesus at Biola University in La Mirada, CA, where he serves as associate professor of Systematic Theology for Talbot School of Theology. He has also taught Philosophy and Literature at Saddleback College, Jurisprudence at Trinity Law School, and as a lecturer in Worldview Studies at L'Abri Fellowships in Switzerland and Holland, and Ethics for Blackstone Legal Fellowship the Federalist Society in Washington D.C.

  In this thought-provoking episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, Patrick engages in a rather detailed, and somewhat technical, conversation with canon lawyer Marc Balestrieri to address two hot-button topics within the Catholic Church: the schismatic claims surrounding Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò and the mounting evidence that Pope Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) could be considered an antipope.   Guest Marc Balestrieri is founder and president of Canonical Aid, an international canon law service helping lay and clergy with canonical issues. He is licensed to practice before any ecclesiastical court in the world, except the tribunals of the Holy See, and specializes in the nullity of Marriage, penal canon law, rotal Jurisprudence and praxis, and the rights of clerics and the faithful.   He was recruited to serve as a staff canonist for the Sacred Roman Rota in the Vatican for the Holy See, and his record includes service in the United States for the Archdioceses of Saint Paul & Minneapolis, Saint Louis, and Los Angeles; England for the Archdiocese of Westminster; and France for the Archdiocese of Strasbourg.    In this interview, Balestrieri offers a detailed analysis of the canonical definitions of schism and whether Viganò's outspoken critiques of Francis, in light of the July 2024 Vatican announcement of Viganò's excommunication for schism. They explore Viganò's controversial stance on issues like the Second Vatican Council and his sharp critiques of the Vatican's leadership.   The conversation then pivots to the question of Bergoglio's legitimacy as pope. Balestrieri shares insights into historical and canonical precedents that fuel arguments for and against the idea that Francis may not be the true successor of St. Peter. Patrick and Marc discuss the impact these debates have on the faithful and the Church's unity, encouraging listeners to think critically about the current papal crisis.   Tune in for a fascinating exploration of modern ecclesial controversies, and what it all means for Catholics worldwide.   Topics covered in this episode:   The proper definition of schism The differences between the 1917 Pio-Benedictine Code of Canon Law The dilemma of being on trial for excommunication and schism when you don't recognize the validity of the antagonist-judges The relevant canons for papal resignation and the distinction between munus (office or gift) and ministerium (external functions) Principles for maintaining hope in an upside down Church under Bergoglio The controversies surrounding the St. Gallen Mafia's misadventures in the lead up and voting pattern in the March 2013 Conclave   Resources mentioned in this episode:   Marc Balestrieri's website    Pope Emeritus?

Sean Illing talks with Glory Liu, the author of Adam Smith's America: How a Scottish Philosopher became an Icon of American Capitalism. Smith is most well-known for being the “father of capitalism,” but as Liu points out in her book, his legacy has been misappropriated — especially in America.
