Australian Feminist Judgments: Righting and Rewriting Law de Professor Heather Douglas

Australian Feminist Judgments: Righting and Rewriting Law

Editat de Professor Heather Douglas, Francesca Bartlett, Dr Trish Luker, Professor Rosemary Hunter
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 ian 2015
This book brings together feminist academics and lawyers to present an impressive collection of alternative judgments in a series of Australian legal cases. By re-imagining original legal decisions through a feminist lens, the collection explores the possibilities, limits and implications of feminist approaches to legal decision-making. Each case is accompanied by a brief commentary that places it in legal and historical context and explains what the feminist rewriting does differently to the original case. The cases not only cover topics of long-standing interest to feminist scholars - such as family law, sexual offences and discrimination law - but also areas which have had less attention, including Indigenous sovereignty, constitutional law, immigration, taxation and environmental law. The collection contributes a distinctly Australian perspective to the growing international literature investigating the role of feminist legal theory in judicial decision-making.

Recenzii

Australian Feminist Judgments is a valuable extension of the emerging feminist judgement-writing genre.
The book is a fascinating and refreshing approach to judging. It will no doubt find a ready place in Law Schools, but more widely among the judiciary and the practising profession.
Australian Feminist Judgemenst: Righting and Rewriting Law enlivens the reader's imagination about the real transformative potential of feminist legal reasoning.
...a marvellous sweep through all aspects of contemporary Australian judgments...You will never look at a judgment the same way again...
Australian Feminist Judgments ably and engagingly achieves its stated objective...the editors' innovations from the pre-existing models of feminist judgments...ensures that Australian Feminist Judgments provides rich material through which to consider feminist judging's nature, purpose and impact.
The judgments are eloquent, well-reasoned, realistic, and above all, interesting... Australian Feminist Judgments: Righting and Rewriting Law will appeal to a wide audience - particularly judges, academics, legal practitioners, law students and people who are interested in feminism or legal jurisprudence.
Australian Feminist Judgments is academic but accessible, and it is sure to spark many debates on the role of feminist jurisprudence...It reminds us that change within existing legal frameworks is possible.
