Produktbeschreibung

"Post is one of the most sophisticated members of the legal academy, and, not surprisingly, he offers here an illuminating contrast between certain conventional, 'formal' approaches to analyzing 'discrimination' and a far more contextual, sociologically nuanced understanding of social practices."--Sanford Levinson, author of "Processes of Constitutional Decisionmaking: Cases and Materials"
