But since the view is attributed to me by Barbara Malament (“The ‘Economic Liberalism’ of Sir Edward Coke,” Yale Law Review, 75, pp. 1321–58), I must make it clear that I do not and have never held it. To demonstrate, as her article convincingly does, that Coke did not believe in laissez-faire is rather like proving that Adam Smith did not advocate a welfare state.Google Scholar
