WOMN 405 - Women And The Law

Institution:

SUNY at Binghamton

Subject:

Description:

This course will examine whether our system of laws treats women in a gender-specific way and how this category of "gender" is affected by or influences those of race, class, ethnicity and sexual orientation. The course will also ask whether recent theories in feminist jurisprudence provide an analytical framework to examine a range of legal issues and, in so doing, suggest alternative means for "doing law." The legal issues that will be considered will focus on those laws that affect women's political, economic and personal choices.
