Book Description:
|
Freedom of speech is a right of all, and society has institutionalized processes to guarantee that freedom. Due to the American people's understanding of exclusion and rank, the meaning of justice has been fragmented by social status and class. While Leavitt views American justice through a prism of social-class conflict in this volume, he argues that it would be incorrect to portray this perspective as somehow whole.
