Authors Goldstein, Baer, Daum and Fine skillfully blend doctrinal
and political developments to document and explain the evolution of
women's rights and the law as well as the dynamics and dissension
among feminist activists. Building on three previous editions, this
book combines updated material on constitutional law, sex and
gender discrimination, and women's reproductive rights, with new
cases and readings on family law, criminal law, and LGBT rights.
Discussion has been expanded to include questions of whether or not
the prohibitions on sex discrimination in Title VII and Title IX
protect trans individuals. New material covers emerging policy
concerns such as female genital mutilation, child marriage, and the
Trump Administration's policy changes on gender issues. This
edition takes a more socio-political and institutional approach
than other books on women and the law. The authors consider issues
such as institutional questions of constitutional interpretation,
the scope of judicial power, the balance of federal-state power,
the interaction between law and other social and political
institutions, the capacity of law to effect societal change, and
the effect of presidential and Senate politics on U.S. Supreme
Court nominations and confirmations. The inclusion of state and
lower federal court decisions greatly strengthens the book's focus
on the law's relationship to gendered inequality. Topics also
include constitutional history, shifting interpretations of
employment discrimination and gender equality, changes in
reproductive technology and associated policy responses, divorce
and dissolution of domestic partnerships, child custody, education,
same-sex marriage, pornography, and domestic violence.
