Description

Institutional Failures explores the complex social and legal dimensions of the Duke University men's lacrosse controversy. This collection by Routledge examines how three major institutions - the legal system, Duke University, and the news media - responded to the high-profile case. The book analyzes how these entities struggled to manage a situation deeply influenced by race, sex, violence, class, and privilege. Readers will gain insight into the systemic problems and mistakes that occurred when these institutions failed to operate properly. By looking at the incentives built into each system, the authors explain the missteps and injustices that defined this era. This work is a significant resource for those studying the intersections of sports, law, and social perceptions within academic and media environments.
