From the Closet to the Altar: Courts, Backlash, and the Struggle for Same-Sex Marriage
Klarman, Michael J. (Professor of Law, Professor of Law, Harvard Law School)
Same-sex marriage, a politically and culturally untenable idea only a quarter century ago, has become one of the most controversial issues in American life. If most young people support gay marriage, and if there are clear indicators that a majority of the population will support it in the very near future, why is the backlash so strong? As Michael Klarman will show in From the Closet to the Altar, it is because its proponents have adopted a court-centeredapproach for advancing their cause. But as Klarman shows, this tactic comes with clear costs. Using the courts to leapfrog public opinion can actually set a cause back because court decisions generate backlashes.
