Résumé

In the past, Columbia Law School produced leaders like Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Now it produces window-smashing activists. When protestors at Columbia broke into a build­ing and created illegal encampments, the student-led Columbia Law Review demanded that finals be canceled because of "distress."Law schools used to teach students how to think critically, advance logical arguments, and respect oppo­nents.
Now those students cannot tolerate disagreement and reject the validity of the law itself. Rioting Ivy Leaguers are the same people who will soon: Be America's judges, DAs, and prosecutors File and fight constitutional lawsuits Advise Fortune 500 companies Hire other left-wing diversity candidates to staff law firms and government offices Run for higher office with an agenda of only enforcing laws that suit left-wing whims In Lawless, Ilya Shapiro explains how we got here and what we can do about it.
The problem is bigger than radical students and biased faculty-it's institu­tional weakness fueled by campus-wide cancel culture. Shapiro met the mob firsthand when he posted a controversial tweet that led to calls for his firing from Georgetown Law. A four-month investi­gation eventually cleared him on a technicality but declared that if he offended anyone in the future, he'd create a "hostile educational environment" and be sub­ject to the inquisition again.
Unable to do the job he was hired for, he resigned. This cannot continue. In Lawless, Shapiro reveals how the illib­eral takeover of legal education is transforming our country. Unless we stop the assault on academic freedom now, the consequences will be with us for decades.
