Diversity, Discourse, and the Mission of the Feminist Law Journal |
12 Columbia Journal of Gender and Law 466 (2003) |
Why a feminist law journal? In recent years, there has been a proliferation of law school journals. At present many schools have, in addition to the traditional law review, journals which focus on race, environmental law, gay and lesbian issues, or international law. In such a context, there seems little need to feel that one has to offer a...; Search Snippet: ...And Enduring Marginality Diversity, Discourse, and the Mission of the Feminist Law Journal Twila L.

Effective Assistance of Counsel for Battered Women Defendants: a Normative Construct |
26 Harvard Women's Law Journal 217 (Spring, 2003) |
The Gideon decision is a solid precedent, hailed from all corners of legal philosophy. The current Supreme Court, even while narrowing other rights of criminal defendants, has described the right to counsel as fundamental. There is just one trouble. In the real world, the promise of Gideon is not being kept. Poor men and women in large numbers go...; Search Snippet: ...Section: Violence Against Women Effective Assistance of Counsel for Battered Women Defendants: a Normative Construct Sarah M.

Professor Terry Smith has written a very important work on the inadequacy of juridical approaches to antidiscrimination law in the context of Title VII litigation.
