Abstract
In this Article, I intend to sketch some theoretical attributes of the good American legislator...In Part I of the Article, I will discuss the original legal process jurisprudence of the 1940s and 1950s, and will attempt to tease out of this body of thought concepts that bear on defining the good American legislator. In Part II, I turn, successively, to the three offshoots of the original legal process material, written over the last twenty years: process formalists, process progressives and process pragmatists. I do this in order to uncover insights that might further our understanding of the good American legislator. In Part III, I offer some speculative musings on extending the good American legislator project into the future.
