Is Marriage for Rich Men? |
13 Nevada Law Journal 386 (Winter 2013) |
At the center of critical theory, including feminism and much of masculinities theory, is a distrust of hierarchy. Yet, promotion of gender equality between men and women does not necessarily address the role of hierarchies among men or among women, and the role of male hierarchies often has different consequences from those among women. In this...; Search Snippet: ...Section II: Work, Family, and Masculinities IS MARRIAGE FOR RICH MEN? [FN1] June Carbone [FNa1] Naomi Cahn [FNaa1] Copyright (c) 2013... |

Judges' Gender and Employment Discrimination Cases: Emerging Evidence-based Empirical Conclusions |
14 Journal of Gender, Race and Justice 359 (Spring 2011) |
Why did we think that women would transform institutions without simultaneously--or alternatively--being transformed by them . . .? Why did we believe that women appointed to positions of power would be representative of women as a group, rather than being those who most resemble the traditional incumbents and are thus considered least likely to...; Search Snippet: ...Intersection in Employment, Economics, and the Law Symposium Article JUDGES' GENDER AND EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION CASES: EMERGING EVIDENCE-BASED EMPIRICAL CONCLUSIONS Pat... |

Juries, Race, and Gender: a Story of Today's Inequality |
46 Wake Forest Law Review 209 (Summer 2011) |
The Civil Rights Act of 1991 (Act or 1991 Act) was thought to be a victory for employment discrimination plaintiffs--a dramatic expansion of their rights. Twenty years later, however, we are told that the news for employment discrimination plaintiffs has gone from bad to worse.

Latinas' Experiences in Relation to Gangs: Intersectionality of Race, Class, Gender, and the State |
2 Georgetown Journal of Law & Modern Critical Race Perspectives 19 (Spring, 2010) |
Women involved with gangs face gender bias and oppression at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels: within themselves and their families, within the gang subculture, at the community level, and through the state, as enacted by the law and its systems of enforcement.

17 William and Mary Journal of Women and the Law 435 (Winter, 2011) |
Gender inequality is a pandemic, both in the developing world and in developed countries. In an attempt to address the situation, the United Nations (U.N.) has called on its subsidiary agencies and all Member States to mainstream a gender approach in all programming.

Obama's Judiciary at Midterm: the Confirmation Drama Continues |
94 Judicature 262 (May-June 2011) |
When Barack Obama assumed the presidency on January 20, 2009, he inherited a country struggling with an economy on the brink of reprising the Great Depression of the 1930s, two middle-eastern wars, crushing deficits, a lopsided tax policy that favored the wealthy and deprived the country of badly needed tax revenue, a health care crisis, and myriad...; Search Snippet: ...THE CONFIRMATION DRAMA CONTINUES Barack Obama's stunning achievement of promoting gender, ethnic, and racial diversity on the federal bench, including two... |

22 Hastings Women's Law Journal 157 (Winter 2011) |
Empty federal judicial benches, long Senate confirmation delays, highly partisan Senate judiciary confirmation hearings, and Kabuki theater characterize the polarizing environment that is the federal judiciary branch. Such an atmosphere raises the question of whether the partisanship and politicization within the confirmation process affects how...; Search Snippet: ...APPOINTING PRESIDENTS, IDEOLOGY, AND CIRCUIT COURT VOTING IN RACE AND GENDER CIVIL RIGHTS CASES Christopher Smith [FNa1] Copyright (c) 2011 UC... |
