Charles A. Beard's 'An Economic Interpretation of the Constitution of the United States' is a seminal work that argues the Constitution was crafted to serve the economic interests of its framers. Beard's analysis challenges the traditional view of the Constitution as a purely democratic document, suggesting instead that it was designed to protect the property rights of the wealthy elite.
