Download or read book Law, Gender, and Injustice written by Joan Hoff and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1994-04 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legal status of women has changed more rapidly in the last 20 years than in the previous 200, Hoff argues, but these changes have become less important over time. The American power structure has relinquished rights to women and minorities only after these rights have been diminished by a white-male-dominated legal system. She calls for a reinterpretation of legal texts to create a feminist jurisprudence. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
