Feminist legal theory foundations

---

The book is designed for students in law, philosophy, political science, sociology, and women's studies who wish to gain an understanding of this new field of study. It also designed for the general reader who wishes to understand the nature of the field and become acquainted with the current debates characterizing it.Clear and concise overview of the common law with a solid introduction to critical legal theory, and feminist jurisprudence in particular. Highly recommended for those considering law school or a legal career, as well as researchers and academics. The information in this text goes a long way toward filling important gaps in legal education making it ideal for pedagogical use. Feminist jurisprudence is the cauldron in which some of the most creative feminist thoughts are brewing. Their release into our sociopolitical environment will bring us somewhat closer to creating a legal system in which the interests of all persons are indeed regarded with equal respect and consideration. Anglo-American law has been in need of a feminist transformation for some time. Weisberg's anthology suggests that the moment of metamorphosis is upon us. Offers a discussion of one of the most important movements in legal scholarship: feminist legal theory. This book examines theoretical issues about the interaction between law and gender. It addresses issues of equality, difference, separate spheres, essentialism, legal methodology, and theories of law.
