Mere Natural Law

In "Originalism Is Not Enough," legal philosopher Hadley Arkes argues that relying solely on originalism in constitutional interpretation is insufficient to protect the rule of law. He advocates for a return to "mere Natural Law"—the moral principles accessible to all—to address ongoing judicial activism and safeguard essential rights. The book offers a compelling reassessment of constitutional history and emphasizes the importance of moral truths rooted in human nature. It is an essential read for those interested in the intersection of law, morality, and constitutional interpretation.
