Is it possible for the United States to sell innovative, competitive products, services, and technologies in the domestic and world markets of the 1990s without sacrificing consumer safety? Is tort law--especially product liability, medical malpractice, and corporate officer liability--performing its proper economic role? Is it encouraging safety, or discouraging innovation? Distinguished experts from the American Assembly answer these questions and more.

Tort Law and the Public Interest: Competition, Innovation, and Consumer Welfare

Peter H. Schuck

Business & Money

W.W.Norton&Company

<p>This publication includes cases that depict the Supreme Court’s broad deference to the political branches in the immigration realm, the so-called “plenary power doctrine.” Selected cases are presented in chronological order, beginning with the Supreme Court’s consideration of the Chinese Exclusion Acts of the 1880s and 1890s. The book then examines how the Cold War tested the constitutional limits of the government’s plenary power over immigration, and how “phantom constitutional norms” were later used to defeat the government’s broadest claims. Other cases explore the immigration enforcement system and the difficulty of balancing the demands of enforcement against other societal goals.</p>
