  • The Battle for Public Interest Law: Exploring the Orwellian Nature of the Freedom Based Public Interest Movement
    The Battle for Public Interest Law: Exploring the Orwellian Nature of the Freedom Based Public Interest Movement † TIMOTHY L. FODEN I. INTRODUCTION Perform a brief Westlaw or Lexis search on the freedom-based public interest movement and you will come up with very little, if anything at all. Similarly, the typical survey class on public interest law offers no information on the more conservative and libertarian wing of the public interest movement. This lack of readily available information prompts a number of questions. Who are the people behind such organizations? Why is it difficult to find information on their work? What is the movement’s agenda? A brief look at a few of these organizations reveals a number of different goals. Freedom-based public interest groups advocate for traditionally conservative causes. Groups such as the Institute for Justice and the Pacific Legal Foundation have launched litigation campaigns against such institutions as the welfare system and the environmental regulatory regime. Other organizations such as the Alliance Defense Fund litigate for the insertion of religious symbols and practices in public spaces. Running the gamut of conservative causes, the freedom- based public interest legal movement has co-opted the once exclusively liberal term, public interest. The Orwellian name-game behind the self-asserted title “freedom-based public interest law movement”1 (“FBPILM”) is heavily responsible for the newly contested definition of public interest. The reason why there is a lack of ascertainable information on these groups is linked to their seemingly innocuous assumption of the term “public interest.” When thinking of public interest, the average lawyer or law † The author would like to thank Professor Richard Wilson for his encouragement of a peculiar topic that required a somewhat journalistic approach.

  • Amanda Shanor, the New Lochner, 2016 Wisc. L. Rev
    THE NEW LOCHNER AMANDA SHANOR* Commercial interests are increasingly laying claim, often successfully, to First Amendment protections. Once the mainstay of political liberty, the First Amendment has emerged as a powerful deregulatory engine—and one with great implications for modern governance. This Article identifies that development as a growing constitutional conflict between the First Amendment and the modern administrative state and analyzes its origins and implications. The Article traces two opposing trends that have led to that constitutional conflict. A business-led social movement has mobilized to embed libertarian-leaning understandings of the First Amendment in constitutional jurisprudence. At the same time, administrative regimes have moved away from command-and-control regulation towards lighter-touch forms of governance that appear more speech-regulating. The stakes of this conflict are high. Because nearly all human action operates through communication or expression, the First Amendment possesses near total deregulatory potential. For that reason, I argue that the First Amendment operates as the fullest boundary line of constitutional state action. I identify the unique features of this modern form of constitutional deregulation—which I call the new Lochner—by interrogating the parallel drawn by a growing number of scholars and judges between recent First Amendment jurisprudence and Lochner v. New York’s liberty of contract. The Article explores linkages between theories of the First Amendment and administrative law, and it analyzes the implications of the First Amendment’s deregulatory turn for understandings of democratic legitimacy, choice, and constitutional change. I argue that the new Lochner must be rejected because advocates of its deregulatory vision are forwarding a concept of liberty that has no limiting principle and, if taken to its analytical conclusion, would render self-government impossible.

  • Agenda Setting: a Wise Giver's Guide to Influencing Public Policy
    AGENDA SETTING MILLER Agenda Setting A Wise Giver’s Guide to Influencing Public Policy Donating money to modify public thinking and government policy has now taken its place next to service-centered giving as a constructive branch of philanthropy. Many donors now view public-policy reform as a necessary adjunct to their efforts to improve lives directly. This is perhaps inevitable given the mushrooming presence of government in our lives. In 1930, just 12 percent of U.S. GDP was consumed by government; by 2012 that had tripled to 36 percent. Unless and until that expansion of the state reverses, it is unrealistic to expect the philanthropic sector to stop trying to have a say in public policies. Sometimes it’s not enough to build a house of worship; one must create policies that make it possible for people to practice their faith freely within society. Sometimes it’s not enough to pay for a scholarship; one must change laws so that high-quality schools exist for scholarship recipients to take advantage of. Yet public-policy philanthropy has special ways of mystifying and frustrating practitioners. It requires understanding of governmental practice, interpretation of human nature, and some philosophical perspective. Public-policy philanthropists may encounter opponents operating from different principles who view them as outright enemies. Moreover, public-policy struggles never seem to end: victories and ZINSMEISTER and ZINSMEISTER one year become defeats the next, followed by comebacks, then setbacks, and on and on. This book was written to help donors navigate all of those obstacles. It draws Agenda on deep history, and rich interviews with the very best practitioners of public- policy philanthropy in America today.

  • On the Origins of the Modern Libertarian Legal Movement
    Do Not Delete 4/9/2013 9:50 PM On the Origins of the Modern Libertarian Legal Movement Roger Pilon* The growing influence of the modern libertarian legal movement in America and beyond was no better illustrated recently than during the two- year run-up to the Supreme Court’s “Obamacare” decision, which came down on the Court’s final day last June.1 Marginalized for years by many conservatives2—to say nothing of the long dominant liberal establishment that dismissed their arguments out of hand3—libertarians offered a principled vision4 that resonated not only with judges who over that period decided several challenges to the Act’s massive expansion of government,5 but with a large part of the American public as well—and, in the end, with a majority on the High Court itself.6 And why not: The vision was grounded in the nation’s First Principles. The movement did not come out of nowhere, however. Its roots are deep and often subtle, the product of decades of thought and work by philosophers, economists, lawyers, and others, all toward securing the legal foundations for liberty. An entire volume would be needed to adequately * Roger Pilon is vice president for legal affairs at the Cato Institute, founder and director of Cato’s Center for Constitutional Studies, and publisher of the Cato Supreme Court Review.
