Regulating Religious Commerce: Antitrust and the Religion Clauses

November 06, 2014 • 12:30 PM • Law School 3043

Does the First Amendment's Free Exercise Clause protect religious organizations against the antitrust laws? To what extent do principles of religious freedom, embodied in the First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, limit the application of antitrust to the activities of religious organizations? Join the Federalist Society for a debate between Duke Law's Professor Barak Richman and Alden Abbott from the Heritage Foundation. Lunch will be served.
