Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the intricate dynamics of campaign finance in America, highlighting how public perception of corruption is shaped by Supreme Court rulings that prioritize First Amendment rights over regulatory measures. It reveals a collaborative effort involving justices, attorneys, advocacy groups, and wealthy backers who strategically repurposed legal tactics from civil rights movements to challenge campaign finance laws. Through interviews and archival research, it uncovers the multi-faceted approach that has led to the current state of political funding and influence.
