Synopsis
In order to illuminate the crucial and often neglected role of legal translation in litigation-driven reform efforts, Paris (political science, City U. of New York-College of Staten Island) explores legal aspects--lawyers, rights claims, litigation, courts, and the like--in struggles to produce more egalitarian school finance and education policies. He focuses attention on would-be reformers and their mobilization of law and courts. Comparative case studies in New Jersey 1970-2009 and Kentucky 1983-2009 demonstrate details about the interplay between law and politics in litigation-based reform projects.
