The Constitution does not merely protect political rights, it protects economic liberty. The Founders understood that property rights and economic freedom are the material foundation of every other freedom a person possesses. When the government takes property without just compenttion, regulates a business out of existence, or retroactively destroys constitutional rights, it is not merely an economic decision, it is violating the Constitution.
"The Constitutional Economy: The Complete Guide to Economic Rights, Regulatory Takings, and the Constitution", is Volume VII of Wayne Richard Evangelista's Constitutional Law Series, delivering comprehensive, practitioner grade coverage of every constitutional protection that bears on economic life in America. From the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause to the Contracts Clause, from substantive due process challenges to occupational licensing schemes to administrative law challenges to agency authority in the post "Loper Bright" landscape, this 450 page volume arms the constitutional warrior with every doctrine and every strategy needed to defend economic liberty in federal court.
Topics covered include: physical and regulatory takings doctrine from "Penn Central" to "Cedar Point Nursery", substantive due process and economic liberty from "Lochner's" fall to its modern rehabilitation; procedural due process in administrative adjudications; Contracts Clause challenges to state legislation retroactively impairing private agreements; occupational licensing constitutional challenges; federal administrative law and the limits of agency authority after "Loper Bright", Wisconsin economic regulation and state constitutional protections; and the full landscape of constitutional litigation strategy for economic rights claims in the Seventh Circuit.
For Business owners, property owners, practitioners, and every citizen who believes that economic freedom is a constitutional right worth defending, "The Constitutional Economy" is the definitive practitioner's reference, rigorous, practical, and indispensable.
