Red Families v. Blue Families: Legal Polarization and the Creation of Culture

Naomi Cahn (George Washington University Law School) and June Carbone (University of Missouri- Kansas City). Red Families v. Blue Families: Legal Polarization and the Creation of Culture (Oxford University Press, 2010).

"Red Families v. Blue Families is a fascinating, groundbreaking look at the ways in which the red versus blue political divide reflects an even deeper divide in family life and sexual values. Cahn and Carbone have updated the old maxim that the personal is political, and enormously enriched it, with hard data and subtle observations."
