President Barack Obama has announced his second nomination to the United States Supreme Court. He has chosen Elena Kagan, the current Solicitor General of the United States, to fill the United States Supreme Court seat being vacated by retiring Justice John Paul Stevens. Unlike the more recent appointees to the Court, Kagan has not served as an appellate judge and thus does not have the judicial paper trail that most nominees have. Listed below are some of Kagan's more important scholarly writings that provide insight into her legal philosophy.
