When a renowned constitutional scholar explains why the law, enforced by a hierarchy of power, is not enough and is sometimes even the problem, we need to listen -- Peter Gray, author of FREE TO LEARN Drawing on her experience and a wide range of studies by social scientists, Skach urges us to move away from relying on constitutional rules and authorities and toward a ‘guerilla’ constitutionalism in which we rely on our own resources and resilience to solve our problems . . . This is an incredibly thought-provoking work addressing the crises of governance we face today -- Mark Tushnet, Harvard Law School From a search for laws that can provide the basis for a good society, Skach leads us to re-examine the virtues of a good citizen, one whom people can respect and value as a member of their community -- Roger Myerson, University of Chicago, 2007 Nobel Laureate in Economics
