Michael McCann is Professor of Political Science at the University of Washington. Professor McCann’s research focuses on the politics of rights and rights-based struggles for social justice, with an emphasis on challenges to race, gender, and class hierarchies. He also was an important figure in the interpretive turn toward scholarly analysis of legal discourse as a constitutive form of power. He is author of over sixty article-length publications and author, co-author, editor, or co-editor of eight books, including the award-winning books Rights at work: Pay equity reform and the politics of legal mobilization (1994) and Distorting the law: Politics, media, and the litigation crisis (2004). https://lsj.washington.edu/people/michael-mccann
