The majority ruled that the privileges (or immunities) clause of the Fourteenth Amendment added nothing to the handful of rights protected against abuse by the states in the original Constitution. By that decision, one of the most important and beneficial products of the Civil War a revolutionary constitutional provision intended to protect civil rights against oppression by state governments was nullified. The repercussions of that unfortunate decision called the Slaughter-Housecases are still being felt today. Nearly a century and a half later, this right that many Americans deem fundamental enjoys virtually no legal protection whatsoever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Death-Grip: Loosening the Law s Stranglehold over Economic Liberty,  Clint Bolick examines the assault on economic liberty brought about by the Slaughter-House cases and describes the campaign to restore economic liberty as a fundamental civil right. In part one, he outlines the sorry state of economic liberty in the nation that is supposed to stand as a beacon of opportunity to the rest of the world. In part two, he examines the history and intent of the Fourteenth Amendment and the judicial nullification of the privileges (or immunities) clause in the Slaughter-Housecases. Part three examines the aftermath of Slaughter-House, whose tragic consequences continue to manifest themselves today. He offers hope in part four, however, describing the current movement to reestablish economic liberty among our civil rights, so far with limited but growing success. A majority of the current Supreme Court appears to agree that the privileges (or immunities) clause means significantly more than interpreted in Slaughter-House. Even if the Court never expressly overturns Slaughter-House,  it may well be responsive to reconsidering jurisprudence that relegates economic liberty to the lowest level of judicial protection. Ultimately, says Bolick, we must win the fight to restore economic liberty. Our nation s endurance as a beacon of freedom depends on it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50032073834769,"sku":"CIN0817913149VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0817913149.jpg?v=1751396666"},{"product_id":"grassroots-tyranny-book-clint-bolick-9781882577019","title":"Grassroots Tyranny","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50289300930833,"sku":"CIN1882577019A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50393297125649,"sku":"CIN1882577019G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1882577019.jpg?v=1750963592"},{"product_id":"affirmative-action-fraud-book-clint-bolick-9781882577286","title":"The Affirmative Action Fraud","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50393307513105,"sku":"CIN1882577280G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":50401825718545,"sku":"CIN1882577280LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1882577280.jpg?v=1751347695"},{"product_id":"nicki-s-girl-book-clint-bolick-9781587367038","title":"Nicki's Girl","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50393321177361,"sku":"CIN1587367033G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1587367033.jpg?v=1751088290"},{"product_id":"david-s-hammer-book-clint-bolick-9781933995021","title":"David's Hammer","description":"Judicial activism is condemned by both right and left, for good reason--lawless courts are a threat to republican government. But challenging conventional wisdom, constitutional litigator Clint Bolick argues in David's Hammer: The Case for an Activist Judiciary that far worse is a judiciary that allows the other branches of government to run roughshod over precious liberties. For better or worse, only a vigorous judiciary can enforce the limits on executive and legislative action, protect constitution-al rights, and tame unelected bureaucrats. David's Hammer reclaims for the judiciary its intended role as the ultimate safeguard of a free society.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50401363886353,"sku":"CIN1933995025G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52688905797905,"sku":"NLS9781933995021","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1933995025.jpg?v=1764845509"},{"product_id":"unshackled-book-clint-bolick-9780817924454","title":"Unshackled","description":"Clint Bolick and Kate J. Hardiman begin with a thought experiment: how would we structure a 21st-century K-12 school system if we were starting from scratch, attending to contemporary parental needs and harnessing the power of technology? Maintaining that the status quo is unacceptable, they take a forward-thinking look at how choice, competition, deregulation, and decentralization can create disruptive innovation and reform education for all students. The US Supreme Court proclaimed 65 years ago in Brown v. Board of Education that our schools must provide equal educational opportunities, but as Bolick and Hardiman argue we have yet to make good on that promise. School systems are bound to antiquated structures, outdated technology, and bureaucratic systems that work for adults, not children. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted how ossified the traditional public school system has become. Today's ruptures in traditional learning create opportunity for reinvention. Unshackled explains that technology can redefine the ways students learn in and out of the classroom and highlights the benefits of expanding educational freedom so that families are able to choose an education that fits their child's needs.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51819714052369,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51819714150673,"sku":"CIN0817924450G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780817924454.jpg?v=1752555899"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-clint-bolick.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
