The Research Handbook on Feminist Jurisprudence surveys feminist
theoretical understandings of law, including liberal and radical
feminism, as well as socialist, relational, intersectional,
post-modern, and pro-sex and queer feminist legal theories.
Featuring contributions from a diverse team of prominent scholars,
this Research Handbook illuminates the ways in which feminist
scholarship has enriched understandings of law's sometimes
subordinating structures and the ways in which law can be
interpreted or changed so as to promote the equality, liberty,
wellbeing, and interests of women. The expert contributors offer a
vast range of feminist perspectives on law, including liberal,
radical, and post-modern feminism, and explore the implications of
these theoretical stances for understandings of the nature of law,
legal change, and the relationship between law and politics.
Chapters analyse the influence of feminist legal theories on
doctrinal areas of law including US constitutional and civil rights
law, international law, and various areas of private law. This
insightful book will be of interest to law students, legal
scholars, and scholars of political and moral philosophy seeking to
understand the entire body of feminist legal scholarship from the
early 1970s to the present, as well as its variants, and
relationships among different theoretical perspectives.
