Cornell Law School Professor Nelson Tebbe and Dr. Abhinav Chandrachud, author and advocate at the Bombay High Court, join us for an episode on religious freedom in India and the United States. We discuss both countries&apos; constitutional history with religion, including how the United States Constitution informed India&apos;s. We also cover the Citizenship Amendment Act, the Muslim travel ban, and venture onto some interesting tangents!

A Law in Common: India and the United States

Religious Freedom with Nelson Tebbe and Abhinav Chandachud

A democratic republic. A revolutionary constitution for its time and place. Nuclear weapons. Religious and cultural diversity. Centuries of oppression. Polarized politics. Terrorism. An aversion to China's ascent. Divisive leadership. Are you thinking of India or the United States? As the title suggests, the world's largest democracies have a lot in common. Using comparative law methods, we examine legal and policy issues that affect India and the United States. We interview experts on both countries on diverse topics such as caste discrimination, intellectual property, and bankruptcy. We hope each country can benefit by the laws and practices of each country. Hosted by Professor Sital Kalantry and numerous students at Cornell Law School and Seattle University Law School.
