Supreme Inequality

In Supreme Inequality, Adam Cohen examines the conservative shifts in the U.S. Supreme Court over the past fifty years, revealing how its rulings have contributed to increasing economic inequality and a decline in protections for the poor and disadvantaged. The book offers a detailed analysis of key decisions since the Nixon era, challenging the view that the Court has been a staunch defender of fairness and equality. As a comprehensive history of American law and politics, it critically assesses the Court’s impact on the nation’s ideals of justice and democracy.
