Living Constitution

The "Living Constitution" is a concept that suggests the U.S. Constitution should be interpreted in a way that evolves over time to reflect contemporary values and societal changes. Rather than being fixed to the historical context of its drafting, this approach allows for a more flexible understanding of rights and laws, adapting to new circumstances, technologies, and social movements. This can involve judicial decisions that consider current norms and challenges, ensuring that the Constitution remains relevant and applicable to present-day issues while still honoring its foundational principles.
