Publisher Description: In this timely volume, contributors from various disciplines analyze reaction and resistance to feminism in several areas of law and policy - child custody, child poverty, sexual harassment, and sexual assault - and in a number of institutional sites, such as courts, legislatures, families, the mainstream media, and the academy. Collectively, their studies paint a complicated, often contradictory, picture of feminism, law, and social change, offering feminists and activists empirically grounded knowledge to develop legal and political strategies for change. |
