Description

From the Introduction

The papers read at the 1950 Convocation of the Institute and reprinted in this volume were concerned with certain "rights" which we Americans call "fundamental:"

• the right to liberty
• the right to property
• the right to freedom of expression
• the right to pursue happiness

Does the Natural Law as the source of human rights offer a true and solid explanation of what men really mean when they call such rights "fundamental"? This was the central theme of the 1950 sessions.
