Freedom, Virtue, and Government
It is a curious fact that certain justices of the Supreme Court have in recent years been dubbed “libertarian,” while, except on certain very special questions, their political philosophy is in fact the very opposite of libertarian. Justices Douglas, Black and Warren would come very low indeed on any scale that measured the intensity and breadth of their devotion to the liberty of the person. And lower still would come their admiring constituency among those who write and teach and influence opinion oh these matters.
