Sinopse

"Government Liability" navigates the intricate world of holding government entities legally accountable for their actions. It explores the delicate balance between protecting governments from frivolous lawsuits and ensuring redress for citizens harmed by negligence, policy failures, or constitutional violations.

 
A key focus is sovereign immunity, the historical doctrine that once shielded governments from legal claims, and how this protection has eroded over time through legislation and judicial decisions. For example, laws like the Federal Tort Claims Act demonstrate a shift towards accountability.

 
The book examines various types of legal claims applicable to government bodies, ranging from negligence and breaches of contract to constitutional violations and administrative errors. It also delves into the real-world consequences of government liability, including its impact on budgets, policy decisions, and public trust.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with foundational principles, followed by detailed examinations of specific legal claims and defenses, and culminating in an analysis of the policy implications of holding government accountable. This comprehensive approach makes it valuable for legal professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in government accountability.

The Last Plantation - Racism and...

James R. Jones

Racism continues to infuse Congress's daily practice of lawmaking and shape who obtains congressional employment. In this timely and provocative book, James Jones reveals how and why many who work in Congress call it the "Last Plantation." He shows that even as the civil rights movement gained momentum and antidiscrimination laws were implemented, Congress remained exempt from federal workplace protections. These exemptions institutionalized inequality in the congressional workplace well into the twenty-first century. 
 
 
 
Jones uncovers the hidden dynamics of power, privilege, and resistance in Congress. He reveals how failures of racial representation among congressional staffers reverberate throughout the American political system and demonstrates how the absence of diverse perspectives hampers the creation of just legislation. Centering the experiences of Black workers within this complex landscape, he provides insights into the problems they face, the barriers that hinder their progress, and the ways they contest entrenched inequality. 
 
 
 
A must-listen for anyone concerned about social justice and the future of our democracy, The Last Plantation exposes the mechanisms that perpetuate racial inequality in the halls of Congress and challenges us to confront and transform this unequal workplace that shapes our politics and society.

The Big Lie About Race in...

Shaun R. Harper, Royel M. Johnson

Royel M. Johnson and Shaun R. Harper's book, The Big Lie About Race in America's Schools, delivers a collective response to the challenge of racially charged misinformation, disinformation, and censorship that increasingly permeates and weakens not only US education but also our democracy. Royel Johnson and Shaun Harper bring together leading education scholars and educators to confront the weaponized distortions that are undermining both public education and racial justice. The experts gathered in this work offer strategies to counter these dangerous trends.The contributors examine efforts both broad and specific, from restrictive education legislation, to book bans, to twisting terminology like Critical Race Theory (CRT) and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), that are obscuring truth in public education. They demonstrate how this narrowing of ideas does a disservice to all students and especially to those who are underrepresented in curricula.Ultimately, the book offers clear, actionable insights for educators, policymakers, and advocates who seek solutions that will counter recent trends and transform educational contexts within K–12 and higher education. This volume advocates strengthening educational alliances through shared leadership, organized collaboration, and parental involvement. It also presents innovative countermeasures to help defend public education.
