Gender and Careers in the Legal Academy de Ulrike Schultz

Gender and Careers in the Legal Academy: Oñati International Series in Law and Society

Editat de Ulrike Schultz, Gisela Shaw, Professor Margaret Thornton, Professor Rosemary Auchmuty
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 feb 2021
In the past fifteen years there has been a marked increase in the international scholarship relating to women in law. The lives and careers of women in legal practice and the judiciary have been extensively documented and critiqued, but the central conundrum remains: Does the presence of women make a difference?What has been largely overlooked in the literature is the position of women in the legal academy, although central to the changing culture. To remedy the oversight, an international network of scholars embarked on a comparative study, which resulted in this path-breaking book. The contributors uncover fascinating accounts of the careers of the academic pioneers as well as exploring broader theoretical issues relating to gender and culture. The provocative question as to whether the presence of women makes a difference informs each contribution.

Recenzii

This book encourages lawyers and gives them the strength they need not only to conquer the academic professional world, but also to shape it as teachers, researchers and scientists.
A welcome addition to the growing literature on women and gender in law. It adds a perspective which has, until now, been missing and gives a fascinating insight into women in the legal academy . The contributions come from heavyweights in the field . as such the powerful writing and rigorous research which underpins the chapters comes as no surprise . I would recommend the collection to anyone interested in women in law and in law schools generally.
This is an excellent collection of essays that has so many dimensions and so much to offer to its readers . It covers enormous ground, not only providing detailed first-hand information and individual case studies, but also broader overviews that deepen our conceptual frameworks . the book makes a significant contribution to a good number of areas within legal scholarship, such as women's studies, legal biography, legal history, legal education and the sociology of professions, just to name a few.
An excellent comparative study by an international network of scholars . As the number of women in law schools increases their voices and their needs become louder and more difficult to ignore or silence. This book assists in amplifying some of those voices.
