Reviews

Delgado raises important questions that most American studies scholarship ignores because of its narrow focus. Delgado's use of fiction and dialogue allows him to model a fairly broad, interdisciplinary conversation about contemporary issues that all too often is absent in much scholarly work. -American Studies This is narrative scholarship of the highest quality. Justice at War addresses a far-ranging set of topical social issues of our times, from affirmative action to hate speech to (in)justice toward noncitizens during times of war. Accessible, well-written, and deeply insightful, Justice at War represents the most creative and thoughtful, if not brilliant, installment of the Rodrigo Chronicles so far. -Kevin Johnson,University of California at Davis This is narrative scholarship of the highest quality. Justice at War addresses a far-ranging set of topical social issues of our times, from affirmative action to hate speech to (in)justice toward noncitizens during times of war. Accessible, well-written, and deeply insightful, Justice at War represents the most creative and thoughtful, if not brilliant, installment of the Rodrigo Chronicles so far. -Kevin Johnson,University of California at Davis Worth reading. The author genuinely loves ideas and avidly seeks racial justice. Infected by his enthusiasm, the reader may well be tempted to learn more about the important issues Delgado raises-an outcome that he would surely welcome. -New York Law Journal Delgado's analysis is fresh and thought provoking. -The Law and Politics Book Review
