The gay rights question in contemporary American law [electronic resource] / Andrew Koppelman. - Chicago, Ill. : University of Chicago Press, 2002. - 1 online resource (x, 210 p.)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

'The Gay Rights Question in Contemporary American Law' offers an unusually nuanced analysis of the most pressing gay rights issues. Does antigay discrimination violate the Constitution? Is there any sound moral objection to homosexual conduct? Are such objections the moral and constitutional equivalent of racism? Must state laws recognizing same-sex unions be given effect in other states? Should courts take account of popular resistance to gay equality? Koppelman sheds new light on all these questions.
