New Book The Jurisprudential Legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

I was happy to contribute a chapter to this new book, The Jurisprudential Legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (Ryan Vacca & Ann Bartow, eds. NYU Press 2023).  

My chapter "Justice Ginsburg's Restrained Theory of Remedial Equity" reveals RBG's surprisingly moderate approach to equitable remedies in gender discrimination cases and in restitution more generally.  I suggest her proceduralist view of the courts, and focus on government action account for her growing moderation over the years.
