Prof. June Carbone’s Book Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy Reviewed in New York Times

Professor June Carbone, Robina Chair in Law, Science and Technology, was cited in a New York Times book review for Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy. The review said that she and her co-authors “deliver a compelling assessment of what has thwarted women’s efforts to attain workplace equality.” It said that “As American dreams of fair play have been swapped out for ruthless competition and zero-sum games, women have often sounded the alarm and been punished for it. What’s particularly instructive about Fair Shake is that the book situates women’s setbacks within a broader story of corporate greed and deregulation; gender inequality isn’t a cultural, sexual or social accident, but a product of political engineering.”
