Rezensionen
Nielsen BookData
"This splendid collection of essays by leading legal scholars, on topics ranging from constitutional law to tax law and policy, draws on the best recent scholarship to illuminate how and why contemporary American law addresses--and fails to address--persistent problems caused by the maldistribution of wealth and income in the United States. Accessible to non-specialists, the essays are full of provocative insights and arguments." --Mark Tushnet, Carmack Waterhouse Professor of Constitutional Law, Georgetown University Law Center "A brilliant collection of essays--each one brisk and authoritative. Altogether they show that class--the increasingly unbridgeable gap between rich and poor--is the biggest challenge to our national and global dreams of freedom and equality. Not only does the volume avoid the unevenness that plagues most groups of essays, but they are uniformly lively and interesting." --Barbara Allen Babcock, Judge John Crown Professor, Emerita, Stanford Law School "In this much-needed book, twenty-five specialists reveal how the growing gulf between Haves and Have-nots has distorted their fields of law--invariably to the advantage of the Haves. If you are concerned at the injustice of putting our lawmaking institutions up for sale to the highest bidders, this book is for you. If you are not concerned, where have you been?" --Kenneth L. Karst, David G. Price and Dallas P. Price Professor of Law Emeritus, University of California, Los Angeles Weiterlesen…
