Amy Wax, recently appointed Robert H. Mundheim
Professor of Law, is as much social critic as law professor. A
contributor to The
Wall Street Journal,
Wax regularly writes
about policy prescriptions
for the ills
of poverty and inequality.
In particular, she
finds the welfare state,
and the competing
interests of work and
family, endlessly compelling
research areas.
“It seems to me that
two of the most central
and important challenges facing our society currently, and
in the future, are how to blend work and family responsibilities
in the wake of the entry of women into the workforce and the
complete sea change in social life brought about by feminism,”
says Wax.
