Exploring past politics
Alexander Wohl '83 believes that the past is an inextricable aspect of the future. To that end, he asserts that participating in modern legal and political debates crucially depends on an understanding of the dynamics of the past. For this reason, Wohl examined the long-standing American tension between the power of the individual and the power of the central government through the lens of a dual biography of former Supreme Court Justice Tom Clark and Attorney General Ramsey Clark, called Father, Son, and Constitution. Since graduating from Brandeis with a degree in History, Wohl has explored his interests in law and legal affairs from different perspectives-working as a journalist and a professor at American University, as well as completing a tenure with the Clinton administration.
