Description
This critical race theory in contracts content is designed to stand alone and can be used to facilitate classroom discussions related to systemic racism and the law in your contracts class. It is drawn in large part from the contracts chapter of Brown’s Critical Race Theory, 4th.
The chapter begins with a brief introduction to critical race theory which looks at how societal racism shaped contracts legal principles. The chapter has a selection of cases generally covered in most contracts subject matter casebooks on the unconscionability doctrine as well as law review articles discussing the cases which provide additional information that allow for a fuller discussion of the role of racism in the cases. After each set of readings there are questions and notes.
