University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Part I of this Note examines Grégoire's liberty-based theory of preservation and discusses the three rationales that underlie his theory. Part II examines the development of preservation law in the United States, following it through three stages: patriotic inspiration, aesthetic merit, and community.

Part IV suggests preservation rationales for courts and legislators to consider and identifies problems for them to avoid.
