Now in paperback from one of the nation’s leading authorities on constitutional law—a call to arms about the Supreme Court’s dramatic shift to the right that is profoundly altering our freedoms and our country. “This book is essential reading” (Susan N. Herman, President, ACLU).

Drawing in part on cases he has argued before the Supreme Court and federal appellate courts, distinguished constitutional law scholar Erwin Chemerinsky describes how a rigid right-wing ideology in the past several decades has trumped reason and compassion in court cases ranging from “three strikes laws” to the ability of citizens to bring suits for damages or for infringement on their rights and liberties. He explains that Supreme Court and other federal judges acceptable to the political right wing have steadily eroded constitutional barriers between church and state, fostered separate but unequal public schools, and limited civil liberties and affirmative action programs.

The Conservative Assault on the Constitution shows how these decisions have affected all of us as conservative activist judges have advanced the agenda of the political right in America.
