Early in the controversy, there were real concerns that these delays had impacted...; Search Snippet: ...SENATE DELAY OF MINORITY JUDICIAL NOMINEES A LOOK AT RACE, GENDER, AND EXPERIENCE Roger E.

Sex Surveillance: Gender, Privacy & the Sexualization of Power in Prison |
10 George Mason University Civil Rights Law Journal 291 (Summer 2000) |
In prison, surveillance is power and power is sexualized. Sex and surveillance, therefore, are profoundly linked.

Gay Men and Sex Equality |
46 Tulsa Law Review 123 (Fall 2010) |
A critical theory of the existing conditions of the social world written not simply to document but in order to change them, sex equality theory's power derives from its apprehension of social reality, including its facts and truths, among them, sexuality's role in producing the sex-based inequalities that pervasively define social life.

Glass Ceilings and Dead Ends: Professional Ideologies, Gender Stereotypes, and the Future of Women Lawyers at Large Law Firms |
78 Fordham Law Review 2245 (April, 2010) |
Large law firms are experiencing a shift in professional ideology. Competitive meritocracy, an ideology that rose to prominence in the 1960s and 1970s and has come to dominate large law firm thinking since the 1980s, is in decline and is gradually being replaced by a hypercompetitive professional ideology. The consequences of this ideological...; Search Snippet: ...Large Law Firms GLASS CEILINGS AND DEAD ENDS: PROFESSIONAL IDEOLOGIES, GENDER STEREOTYPES, AND THE FUTURE OF WOMEN LAWYERS AT LARGE LAW... |
