Description
Feminist Judgments From Theory to Practice by Rosemary Hunter, Clare McGlynn and Erika Rackley explores how feminist legal scholarship can be applied in practice. A group of feminist legal scholars have written alternative judgments for significant English law cases, providing insight into how these decisions could have been reached differently. These alternative judgments are accompanied by commentaries that explain the original decision, its background and doctrinal significance, as well as how the feminist judgment deals with the issues raised. The book also examines the theoretical and conceptual issues surrounding the process and practice of feminist judging. By applying feminist theory to real-life cases, this collection sheds light on the potential for divergent approaches to legal decision-making and highlights the need for greater consideration of feminist perspectives in the judiciary.
