Abstract
In this University of Chicago Law Review Online extended review essay of Adam Chilton Chilton and Mila Versteeg's How Constitutional Rights Matter, we highlight a number of the strengths of the work in terms of both theory and methods. We also raise some questions concerning three issues: (1) the book's core argument—the advantage of organizational rights over individual rights—and it's applicability to property rights, due process rights and indigenous peoples' rights; (2) the possible tradeoff between substantive insights and comprehensive, multi-method comparative research; and (3) the possibility that organized interests determine or affect which rights enjoy constitutional protection in the first place.
