Articles I, II, and III establish the parts of the national government that will check and balance each other. What does Article IV add? Professor Lillian BeVier explains how Article IV protects the rights of the states, both in relation to the federal government and to each other. It provides a level of national security and uniformity while allowing citizens the freedom of movement between the various states.
Professor Lillian BeVier is the David and Mary Harrison Distinguished Professor of Law Emeritus at the University of Virginia School of Law. Professor BeVier taught constitutional law (with special emphasis on First Amendment issues), intellectual property (trademark, copyright), real property and torts from 1973-2010 at the Law School, and now teaches a January Term course on judicial philosophy.
As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speaker.
