The Return of George Sutherland

Focusing on the jurisprudence of Justice George Sutherland, this book aims to revive the concept of natural rights for contemporary readers. While Sutherland is often criticized and overshadowed in historical discussions, his contributions to voting rights for women and his complex legacy are highlighted. Both liberal and conservative jurists reference his writings, with liberals valuing his protection of privacy rights and conservatives appreciating his economic freedom advocacy. This work seeks to recontextualize Sutherland's significance in today's legal landscape.
