There are competing legal philosophies with respect to decisions about interpretation of the U.S. Constitution and other laws. They can be grouped into two categories: "law without values" and "law with values":
Law without values
- originalism
- textualism
- strict constructionism
Law with values
- conservatism - when conservative values are applied
- critical legal studies - when liberal ideologies are applied
