Coincidentally, after spending a class meeting on the impact (or lack of impact) of Brown v. Board of Ed., I found this article in the Pocket Part, an online companion to the Yale Law Journal. The author, Harvard law professor Kenneth Mack, questions whether Brown really had the impact many attribute to it... You'll also find some reactions to Mack's argument.
It seems (after giving the article a quick and admittedly superficial look) that Mack ignores the extensive political science research that in fact confirms his argument. Kind of reinventing the wheel...
