PREFACE The recent trade war between the United States and China has highlighted arguments between free-market principles and protectionism nationally. At the state and local level too, judges, lawmakers, and scholars have debated the proper balance be- tween individual economic liberty and governmental interests on issues like civil asset forfeiture, licensing, and home-sharing laws. Consideration of these issues, however, is not a recent invention. The quest for economic liberty in response to tyranni- cal restrictions on trade and taxes was central to the American Revolution and to debates leading to the Constitution’s ratifica- tion. In a similar vein, the theme of the Thirty-Eighth Annual Federalist Society Student Symposium was inspired by Frédéric Bastiat’s maxim: “Life, liberty, and property do not exist be- cause men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.” Many of the nation’s finest scholars and judges came together at the Symposium to discuss how factions, relations among the states, congressional powers, and constitutional structure affect economic liberty. We have the honor of presenting eight Essays from the Symposium in this Issue of the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy. In the first, Professor Randy Barnett analyzes three key historical data points to determine the original meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment’s Privileges or Immunities Clause. Next, Professor Roderick Hills examines whether economic protectionism is a legitimate state interest. In three thought- provoking Essays, Professor Beth Colgan, Professor Erik Luna, and Christina Sandefur discuss the interplay between criminal justice and individual economic liberty. Then, Professor John McGinnis remarks on the nature of Bitcoin and its future as a currency. Finally, Professor Allan Ides and Dana Berliner each explore the contributions of federalism and constitutionalism to economic liberty. Additionally, we are pleased to present three Articles ad- dressing current constitutional issues. The first Article of this Issue, by Paul Larkin and GianCarlo Canaparo, considers the case Kahler v. Kansas, currently pending before the Supreme Preface ii Court. They argue that neither the Due Process Clause nor the Cruel and Unusual Punishments Clause requires criminal law to offer an insanity defense. Next, Professor William Lee ana- lyzes the Supreme Court’s struggle with corporate identity through an in-depth look at the Justices’ papers in First Amendment cases over the past forty years. He argues that government efforts to fine-tune the flow of information by compelling private speech should be rejected because they promote government-defined orthodoxy. Finally, Professor David Schoenbrod argues that Congress and the Supreme Court should enforce the consent-of-the-governed norm, more broadly known as the nondelegation doctrine. We are happy to close this Issue with a Note from one of our own. Brian Kulp argues that the Constitution grants Congress near-plenary power to curb the Supreme Court’s appellate ju- risdiction, but this power should only be used with bipartisan support after attempting to use the amendment process. This Issue would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of the Journal and Symposium editors. I cannot thank them enough. In particular, Deputy Editor-in- Chief R.J. McVeigh revitalized our editing process and provided wise counsel. Articles Chair Jacob Thackston has been irre- placeable in managing our submissions and article selection process. Hugh Danilack served as National Symposium Editor and Managing Editor, excelling at both. Aaron Gyde, also a Managing Editor, put in countless hours doing exceptional ed- iting work. Dylan Soares, our Chief Financial Officer, generously undertook the time-consuming work of managing the Journal’s business affairs. Aaron Hsu made himself available every day to help in the final rounds of editing, answering all my tricky editing questions. And Dallin Earl was always around to listen and brainstorm ideas

  • Accessibility and the Crowded Sidewalk: Micromobility’S Impact on Public Space CYNTHIA L
    Accessibility and The Crowded Sidewalk: Micromobility’s Impact on Public Space CYNTHIA L. BENNETT Carnegie Mellon University, [email protected] EMILY E. ACKERMAN Univerisity of Pittsburgh, [email protected] BONNIE FAN Carnegie Mellon University, [email protected] JEFFREY P. BIGHAM Carnegie Mellon University, [email protected] PATRICK CARRINGTON Carnegie Mellon University, [email protected] SARAH E. FOX Carnegie Mellon University, [email protected] Over the past several years, micromobility devices—small-scale, networked vehicles used to travel short distances—have begun to pervade cities, bringing promises of sustainable transportation and decreased congestion. Though proponents herald their role in offering lightweight solutions to disconnected transit, smart scooters and autonomous delivery robots increasingly occupy pedestrian pathways, reanimating tensions around the right to public space. Drawing on interviews with disabled activists, government officials, and commercial representatives, we chart how devices and policies co-evolve to fulfill municipal sustainability goals, while creating obstacles for people with disabilities whose activism has long resisted inaccessible infrastructure. We reflect on efforts to redistribute space, institute tech governance, and offer accountability to those who involuntarily encounter interventions on the ground. In studying micromobility within spatial and political context, we call for the HCI community to consider how innovation transforms as it moves out from centers of development toward peripheries of design consideration.

  • Toward a Revitalization of the Contract Clause Richard A
    The University of Chicago Law Review VOLUME 51 NUMBER 3 SUMMER 1984 0 1984 by The University of Chicago Toward a Revitalization of the Contract Clause Richard A. Epsteint The protection of economic liberties under the United States Constitution has been one of the most debated issues in our consti- tutional history.' Today the general view is that constitutional pro- tection is afforded to economic liberties only in the few cases of government action so egregious and outrageous as to transgress the narrow prohibitions of substantive due process.2 The current atti- tude took its definitive shape in the great constitutional battles over the New Deal, culminating in several important cases that sustained major legislative interference with contractual and prop- erty rights.3 The occasional Supreme Court decision hints at re- newed judicial enforcement of limitations on the legislative regula- t James Parker Hall Professor of Law, University of Chicago. This paper was originally prepared for a conference on "Economic Liberties and the Constitution," organized at the University of San Diego Law School in December, 1983, under the direction of Professors Larry Alexander and Bernard Siegan. I also presented it as a workshop paper at Boston University Law School in February, 1984. I wish to thank all the participants for their valu- able comments and criticisms. I also wish to thank David Currie, Geoffrey Miller, Geoffrey Stone, and Cass Sunstein for their helpful comments on an earlier draft of this article. The classic work on the subject is C.

  • Who Is the Attorney General's Client?
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NDL\87-3\NDL305.txt unknown Seq: 1 20-APR-12 11:03 WHO IS THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S CLIENT? William R. Dailey, CSC* Two consecutive presidential administrations have been beset with controversies surrounding decision making in the Department of Justice, frequently arising from issues relating to the war on terrorism, but generally giving rise to accusations that the work of the Department is being unduly politicized. Much recent academic commentary has been devoted to analyzing and, typically, defending various more or less robust versions of “independence” in the Department generally and in the Attorney General in particular. This Article builds from the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Co. Accounting Oversight Board, in which the Court set forth key principles relating to the role of the President in seeing to it that the laws are faithfully executed. This Article draws upon these principles to construct a model for understanding the Attorney General’s role. Focusing on the question, “Who is the Attorney General’s client?”, the Article presumes that in the most important sense the American people are the Attorney General’s client. The Article argues, however, that that client relationship is necessarily a mediated one, with the most important mediat- ing force being the elected head of the executive branch, the President. The argument invokes historical considerations, epistemic concerns, and constitutional structure. Against a trend in recent commentary defending a robustly independent model of execu- tive branch lawyering rooted in the putative ability and obligation of executive branch lawyers to alight upon a “best view” of the law thought to have binding force even over plausible alternatives, the Article defends as legitimate and necessary a greater degree of presidential direction in the setting of legal policy.
