Title IX: The Transformation of Sex Discrimination in Education: Critical Moments in American History

Autor Elizabeth Kaufer Busch, William E. Thro
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 mai 2018
This book examines the history and evolution of Title IX, a landmark 1972 law prohibiting sex discrimination at educational institutions receiving federal funding. Elizabeth Kaufer Busch and William Thro illuminate the ways in which the interpretation and implementation of Title IX have been transformed over time to extend far beyond the law's relatively narrow statutory text. The analysis considers the impact of Title IX on athletics, sexual harassment, sexual assault, and, for a time, transgender discrimination. Combining legal and cultural perspectives and supported by primary documents, Title IX: The Transformation of Sex Discrimination in Education offers a balanced and insightful narrative of interest to anyone studying the history of sex discrimination, educational policy, and the law in the contemporary United States.

Recenzii

This provocative view of Title IX by Busch and Thro provides a valuable examination of the statute’s origin and scope. From the law’s quest for gender equity in intercollegiate athletics through its development as the primary deterrent to sexual discrimination at the nation’s colleges and universities, the book indeed makes an important and timely contribution to the higher education community.
- Oren Griffin, Associate Dean for Strategic Initiatives & Professor of Law, University of Mercer School of Law
A thoroughly researched and well-written volume, Title IX: The Transformation of Sex Discrimination in Education is a must read for all interested in Title IX, whether students, faculty members, compliance officers, and/or attorneys. This is the most current book on Title IX; written in jargon-free language, it provides a comprehensive, cutting-edge analysis of the law’s applications from its earliest days through today’s controversies on from its earliest use as a mandate for equal opportunity in sports to its application to sexual harassment to contemporary disputes about sexual assault and campus disciplinary proceedings.
- Charlie Russo, Director, Ph.D. Program in Educational Leadership and Research Professor of Law, University of Dayton
