Book Synopsis American Law in the Age of Hypercapitalism by : Ruth Colker
Book excerpt: A comparative analysis of the legal models of Canada and Australia jarred Colker (constitutional law, Ohio State U. College of Law) into a new perspective on the presumptions of the US legal system. She emphatically contends that the law must take a leadership role in mending the tattered social safety net, by re-balancing laissez-faire economics with the protection of individual rights. Legal arguments are personalized with case studies of those dealing with discrimination and workplace inequities. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
