Politico Magazine Includes Professor Pruitt's Article on Year-End Best-of List

Politico Magazine included a piece written by Professor Lisa R. Pruitt on its Dec. 25 year-end list of “stories that best explain 2022.” Headlined “What the Republicans Know (and Democrats Don’t) about the White Working Class,” the essay first appeared in the magazine in June.

Lisa R. Pruitt, Martin Luther King Jr. Professor at UC Davis School of Law, is a scholar whose recent work explores the legal relevance of rural spatiality, including how it inflects dimensions of gender, race, and ethnicity.  Pruitt's work also considers rural-urban difference in transnational and international contexts. She is the recipient of the law school’s 2020 Distinguished Teaching Award.
