The article focuses on the state constitutional socio-economic rights in the U.S. under the decisions of state courts. It analyzes the subnational underutilization thesis of state-constitutions related to protection of rights against the government and U.S. judicial enforcement of rights. It informs that the U.S. state courts use common law to develop remedial strategies for enforcement of the rights.
