Tras analizar el pensamiento de Samuel Chase y de los creadores de la Declaración de Independencia, concluimos que la prosecución de la felicidad debe ser vista como el principio interpretativo de una constitución que no es un documento aislado, sino parte de un contrato más amplio que integra no sólo libertades negativas sino también derechos sociales.Universidad de Oviedo: Area de Derecho ConstitucionalCentro de Estudios Políticos y Constitucionales2008text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=2695363(Revista) ISSN 1576-4729Historia constitucional: Revista Electrónica de Historia Constitucional, ISSN 1576-4729, Nº. 9, 2008297 pags. engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.

Calder v. Bull turns to be the vehicle to link the social contract theory of Jean Jacques Burlamaqui with the American Constitution. After analyzing the thought of Samuel Chase and the framers of the Declaration of Independence, we conclude that the pursuit of happiness ought to be seen as a principle of interpretation of a constitution that is not an isolated document, but part of a larger compact that integrates not only negative liberties but also social rights.
