The Crisis of the Middle-Class Constitution

A thought-provoking and original take on economic inequality, this book argues that a strong middle class is essential for America's constitutional system. The author explores the history of the American Constitution and the generations of Americans who fought for economic equality. Today, with inequality on the rise, the book asks whether we'll risk oligarchy or rebuild the middle class and reclaim our republic. A tour de force of history, philosophy, law, and politics, this book presents a compelling case that inequality threatens the very core of our constitutional system.
