Courts can play an important role in addressing issues of
inequality, discrimination and gender injustice for women. The
feminisation of the judiciary - both in its thin meaning of women's
entrance into the profession, as well as its thicker forms of
realising gender justice - is a core part of the agenda for gender
equality. This volume acknowledges both the diversity of meanings
of the feminisation of the judiciary, as well as the complexity of
the social and cultural realisation of gender equality. Containing
original empirical studies, this book demonstrates the past and
present challenges women face to entering the judiciary and
progressing their career, as well as when and why they advocate for
women's issues while on the bench. From stories of pioneering women
to sector-wide institutional studies of the gender composition of
the judiciary, this book reflects on the feminisation of the
judiciary in the Asia-Pacific.
