The Classical Liberal Constitution: The Uncertain Quest for Limited Government

By Richard A. Epstein

Book Overview

Steering clear of debates over originalism vs. a living Constitution, Richard A. Epstein employs close reading, historical analysis, and political and economic theory to urge a return to federalism, restricted government, separation of powers, and strong protection of individual rights--ideas that animated the framers' constitutional design.
