- Description
- This book re-visits key feminist debates over the origins of patriarchy, the role of liberalism and the rule of law in its creation and perpetuation. It re-evaluates feminist calls for the dislocation of legal reform strategies and rights-based claims. Drawing upon the work of 'mainstream' analytical jurists and philosophers like Foucault and Wittgenstein the author examines concepts of power, identity and equality within feminist political theory.
