Adrian Vermeule Książki

The authors address concerns about the influence of unaccountable bureaucrats, referred to as the deep state, by advocating for a moral framework that promotes transparency and accountability in government. They argue that while the administrative state can appear daunting, it has the potential to operate on principled grounds, ensuring that rulemakers act ethically and do not misuse their power.

Adrian Vermeule critiques the prevailing legal approaches in America—originalism and living constitutionalism—and proposes an alternative rooted in the classical legal tradition. He advocates for "common good constitutionalism," emphasizing law's role in promoting justice, peace, and morality, aiming to recover this legacy in public law.
