Shifts in Court on Freedom of Contract and State Power
The article traces a long shift in Supreme Court doctrine from Lochner era limits on state wage and hour laws to a broad expansion of federal and state regulatory power. It notes key cases including Lochner v New York Adair v United States Nebbia v New York and Darby Lumber Co and highlights how the Court redefined due process to permit social and economic legislation and later the federal promotion of general welfare through programs like the 1933 Wages and Hours Act and maternity support measures.
