Liberty Without Equality: The Property-Rights Connection In A Negative Citizenship Regime, David Abraham
Articles
Why, in comparison with other liberal capitalist democracies, is the social welfare state so poorly anchored in American law and public discourse? Surely American political and social history have contributed much to the weakness of our "social state." But law, too, has played a significant material, as well as ideological, role and has provided the terrain for much of our social development.

The author traces the journey of the midwife to her present status as a legitimate source of obstetrical care and examines the Florida Legislature's recent enactment of the Midwifery Practice Act.
