Abstract

The article aims to study the contents of the "welfare rights" in the United States in the context of the legal position of the Supreme Court of the United States. An analysis of key decisions of the Supreme Court concerning the protection of such rights is made. The authors came to the conclusion that the legal positions of the Supreme Court of the United States have undergone a long evolution in the sense of "welfare rights": from their complete rejection to the assessment in the coordinates of the rule of law principle, which is implicitly derived from the Constitution. It has been found that the Supreme Court links the protection of "welfare rights" (unwritten constitutional rights) with the protection of other rights, which are outwardly enshrined in the text of the Constitution (in particular, with the right to due process)
