Synopsis

Gerald N. Rosenberg challenges the widely held belief that courts are effective instruments for political and social change. He meticulously argues that efforts to achieve significant reforms in civil rights, abortion, and women's rights through the judicial system have largely failed. This book makes a compelling case for the power of traditional politics as the true driver of social change in America.
