During his long career of public service, first as a reform-minded lawyer and later as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, Louis Dembitz Brandeis (1856-1941) had a profound influence upon American life in this century.

The death of treaty supremacy has significant implications for U.S. foreign policy and for U.S. compliance with its treaty obligations.
