Abstract
The current theory of critical phenomena in constrained systems is re-examined. It is found that renormalization of critical exponents is possible even if alpha <0 in the unconstrained system. The renormalized behaviour occurs at a tricritical point which is of the same type as found recently in magnetothermomechanics. A soluble model illustrates this behaviour.Keywords
