Klarman\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA monumental investigation of the Supreme Court's rulings on race, \u003cem\u003eFrom Jim Crow To Civil Rights\u003c\/em\u003e spells out in compelling detail the political and social context within which the Supreme Court Justices operate and the consequences of their decisions for American race relations. In a highly provocative interpretation of the decision's connection to the civil rights movement, Klarman argues that \u003cem\u003eBrown\u003c\/em\u003e was more important for mobilizing southern white opposition to racial change than for encouraging direct-action protest. \u003cem\u003eBrown\u003c\/em\u003e unquestioningly had a significant impact--it brought race issues to public attention and it mobilized supporters of the ruling. It also, however, energized the opposition. In this authoritative account of constitutional law concerning race, Michael Klarman details, in the richest and most thorough discussion to date, how and whether Supreme Court decisions do, in fact, matter. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael J.
