Mark Tushnet (b. 1945) is a prominent critical legal studies proponent and author of many books. Tushnet is a constitutional law scholar who, as a clerk to Justice Thurgood Marshall, authored a memo which dramatically influenced the opinion in Roe v. Wade. Tushnet is a professor at Georgetown Law Center and one of the most radical constitutional law theorists in the country. He famously described critical legal studies as a "political location" and has stated that, were he a justice, he would vote in favor of whichever side in a case he thought would best advance the agenda of international socialism.
