Earl Warren and the Struggle for Justice explores the remarkable
life of one of the leading public figures and jurists of twentieth
century America. Based on newly available source materials, it
traces Warren's progressive vision of government from its origins
in the fight against urban corruption in Oakland, California during
the 1930s to its culmination in the effort to professionalize
public school administration, law enforcement, and the management
of the electoral process under the auspices of the U.S.
Constitution. Although Warren's major social justice decisions
strengthened democracy at a crucial juncture in American and world
history, in times of crisis his excessive deference to national
security officials sometimes jeopardized other core human rights,
as shown in his approaches to the Japanese internment and the
investigation into the assassination of President John Kennedy. The
book offers accessible and fresh insights into the dynamics of the
Supreme Court and the accomplishments of Earl Warren, the man,
jurist, and political leader.
