EDITOR'S NOTE: The Senate Judiciary Committee's 12-day hearings on the nomination of Robert M. Bork to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court were a remarkable seminar on the Constitution and the role of the Supreme Court as protector of our rights and liberties. Civil rights groups and others contributed to the dialogue through reports and analyses of the nominee's views and opinions on a wide variety of important issues.
In this issue of the MONITOR, Karen McGill Arrington summarizes major issues in the debate, drawing on testimony and several of the major reports.
Readers may obtain more information by writing to the Senate Document Office for a copy of the Judiciary Committee's report. William Taylor, Senior Editor
