Toxic Diversity: Race, Gender, and Law Talk in AmericaNYU Press, 2005 - 335 páginas Toxic Diversity offers an invigorating view of race, gender, and law in America.

Far from energizing women and minorities, Subotnik concludes, theorists divert their energies from implementing America's social justice agenda. |
