Abstract

This book examines the federal statutory protection against employment discrimination, highlighting the themes of workplace equality that are embodied in the civil rights laws. Additional nondiscrimination rights that arise under the U.S. Constitution and some state human rights laws are also explored. Like prior editions, this edition features many recent cases and new federal statutes, as well as diverse contemporary scholarship drawn from critical race theory, feminist legal theory, history, social science, and law and economics, among other disciplines. The authors’ extensive materials framing the cases are designed to prepare students thoroughly for practice in this rapidly changing field of law.
