Adam Lebovitz is a historian of political thought, specializing in the constitutional ideas of the late eighteenth century in America, Britain, and France. He holds a doctorate and a law degree from Harvard. Prior to coming to the Hamilton School he held fellowships at a number of leading institutions, including University of Cambridge, the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory in Frankfurt, New York University Law School, and the Harvard Law School. His research has been published, or is forthcoming, in venues such as the William and Mary Quarterly, the American Journal of Legal History, and the Cambridge History of Rights. His forthcoming first monograph, Colossus: Constitutional Theory in America and France, 1776-1799, documents the surprising extent to which American constitutional ideas and designs influenced the course of the French revolution. He has won numerous prizes, including the Leo Strauss Prize from the American Political Science Association, the Robert Noxon Toppan Prize from Harvard University, and the Montreal Political Theory Manuscript Award.
