Tiedeman, Christopher G. A Treatise on the Limitations of Police Power in the United States Considered from both a Civil and Criminal Standpoint. St. Louis: The F.H. Thomas Law Book Co., 1886. lxv, 662 pp. Reprinted 2001 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-122-4. Cloth. $110. * An influential work often cited by lawyers and judges in their attacks upon legislative power, offering a conservative bias in its constitutional analysis of the subject of police power. "This treatise far more clearly sustained and developed laissez faire constitutional principles than did that of Cooley, and it was second only to the work of the latter in the influence it was to exercise on bench and bar. Although Cooley may have anticipated the rise of laissez faire constitutionalism, Tiedeman most surely deserves credit for its crystallization into a fixed and pervading dogma." Jacobs, Law Writers and the Courts 59,62. Tiedeman [1857-1903] was a law professor and author known chiefly for this important treatise, and also State and Federal Control of Person and Property. Catalogue of the Library of the Harvard Law School II:749.

Tiedeman, Christopher G. A Treatise on State and Federal Control of Persons and Property in the United States Considered from both a Civil and Criminal Standpoint. St. Louis: The F.H. Thomas Law Book Co., 1900. Two volumes. Reprinted 2002 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-229-8. Cloth. $195. * A conservative jurist known for his important study A Treatise on the Limitations of Police Power in the United States Considered from Both a Civil and Criminal Standpoint, Tiedeman [1857-1903] completed this work at a time when the spirit of social and economic laissez-faire of the Gilded Age was giving way to demands for greater degrees of governmental regulation in response to the emergence of modern corporate capitalism and, especially, the rapid growth of Socialism, Communism, and Anarchism. For Tiedeman, the fundamental issue is the need to control these groups in the interests of public order while preserving their rights of self-determination as guaranteed by the Constitution. He was optimistic that popular faith in the Constitution is strong enough to maintain this delicate balance.
