  • 摘要:By this point in the Symposium, observers will have noticed the obvious; there is no category unenumerated rights. Indeed, there can- not be such a category if we think that an analytic category must have some reasonably stable content. The whole point of the so-called category is to give us a conceptual tool to use when thinking about rights that you can't find anywhere else, no matter how hard you look. But, if you can't find them anywhere else, it's not entirely clear what "they" might be. Or, more precisely, anythin can count as an unenumerated right. Consider Bowers v. Hardwick and Lawrence v. Texas. 2 Justice Byron White was surely correct in asserting that there is no enumerated right to homosexual sodomy in the Constitution , but Justice Anthony Kennedy was equally correct in asserting that there was an enumerated right to liberty in the Constitution.
