Immigration Wars
The immigration debate divides Americans more stridently than ever, due to a chronic failure of national leadership by both parties. Bush and Bolick propose a six-point strategy for reworking our policies that begins with erasing all existing, outdated immigration structures and starting over. Their strategy is guided by two core principles: first, immigration is vital to America's future; second, any enduring resolution must adhere to the rule of law.
The Affirmative Action Fraud
By promoting race and gender preferences in jobs, government contracts, and college admissions; forced busing; and an apartheid-like system of racial gerrymandering, these policies deepen racial hostilities and undermine our commitment to individual rights while producing few tangible results.
Death Grip
Clint Bolick examines the assault on economic liberty brought about by the 19th century's Slaughter-House Cases. He explains how those cases nullified the privileges or immunities clause of the 14th Amendment and how the repercussions continue to manifest themselves today.

The Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement
Starting in the 1970s, conservatives learned that electoral victory did not easily convert into a reversal of important liberal accomplishments, especially in the law. As a result, conservatives' mobilizing efforts increasingly turned to law schools, professional networks, public interest groups, and the judiciary--areas traditionally controlled by liberals. Drawing from internal documents, as well as interviews with key conservative figures, The Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement examines this sometimes fitful, and still only partially successful, conservative challenge to liberal domination of the law and American legal institutions. Unlike accounts that depict the conservatives as fi...
Gang of Five
Focusing on the lives and careers of five men -- Weekly Standard publisher Bill Kristol, Christian Coalition founder Ralph Reed, anti-tax lobbyist Grover Norquist, Congressman David McIntosh, and constitutional lawyer Clint Bolick -- Nina Easton offers a telling chronicle of the rise of modern conservatism. She describes the family and educational background of each man, the cultural forces that shaped them, and the issues that unite -- and divide -- them as they continue their war against the political establishment. An intriguing look at baby boomers who rebelled against the legacy of the 1960s, Gang of Five is a major contribution to contemporary history. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.
