To explain how constitutions shape and are shaped by women's lives,
the contributors to this volume examine constitutional cases
pertaining to women in twelve countries. Analyzing jurisprudence
about reproductive, sexual, familial, socio-economic, and
democratic rights, they focus constructively on women's claims to
equality, asking who makes these claims, what constitutional rights
inform them, how they have evolved, what arguments work in
defending them, and how they relate to other national issues. Their
findings reveal significant similarities in outcomes and in
reasoning about women's constitutional rights in these twelve
countries, challenging the tradition of distinguishing
constitutional jurisprudence depending on whether the country has a
written or unwritten constitution, subscribes to civil or common
law, is a federal or unitary state, limits constitutional
adjudication to the public rather than also including the private
domain, accords international norms binding or subject to
incorporation force, or relies on a specialized or general court to
adjudicate constitutional matters.
