Sommario/riassunto |
|
If most young people support gay marriage, and if there are clear indicators that a majority of the population will support it in the very near future, why is the backlash so strong? As Michael Klarman shows in this book, it is because its proponents have adopted a court-centred approach for advancing their cause. |
