"Unconstitutional" Alcohol Sales Prohibitions by US Cities
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the trend toward sharply restricting alcohol sales in cities for the purpose of restricting availability in narrow locations.

Citizens and local politicians alike need to ensure that their communities do not fall into the trap of "back-door" prohibition that already has been overruled by the 21st amendment. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
