Feminist Jurisprudence

Leslie F. Goldstein, Professor of Political Science at the University of Delaware, is the author of In Defense of the Text: Democracy and Constitutional Theory (Rowman & Littlefield, 1991).

The book is stimulating because it combines serious attention to the roles of law in society without losing sight of the problem of developing progressive agenda for women. The authors show convincingly ... that there are no easy answers to the problem of law's contribution to women's emancipation. American Political Science Review An excellent synthesis of the existing literature ^Rand^I an insightful addition to it that will help scholars integrate several approaches. -- Karen O'Connor, Emory University A valuable book on a range of feminist theoretical and policy debates, especially for the otherwise-unpublished Goldstein and Baer articles.
