     summary: Anti-patriarchal political projects are continually being invited and seduced into the realm of possibility as new justifications for criminalization and empire.   The political demands of prison abolition and an end to immigration enforcement require us to untangle the interwoven norms, knowledges and practices that produce the policing and imprisonment of people through criminal punishment systems, immigration enforcement systems and medical/psychiatric systems.

     summary: Women in Middle Age In March 2012 House of Commons researchers analysed the effects of austerity measures on men and women (The Guardian 2012). Such women are often reliant on public services and will suffer as cuts are made to such provision: the 2010 Comprehensive Spending Review announced £34bn in cuts to funding for public services by 2012-13.

     summary: As a route to balancing ‘work' and ‘life', the UK’s right to request flexible work contains much of interest for a feminist analysis of how legal temporalities are created and sustained. Furthermore, this documentary route to achieving flexible work as a precursor to achieving balance is an interesting mix of private law and legislated right.

      flesch: 45
     summary: She argues that the medical model goes against the right to dignity, autonomy and freedom of persons.[footnoteRef:23] Further, Kothari argues that the Supreme Court in the NALSA judgment, by ordering legal recognition of gender identities into defined categories – male, female or third gender – as a precondition to access welfare schemes, employment, etc. has made gender identity an essential part of one’s existence to enjoy civil rights.[footnoteRef:24] These liberties would consist of access to a passport, ration cards, driver’s license, education, reservation schemes, voter identity cards, etc.[footnoteRef:25] However, this emphasis on gender identity in accessing socioeconomic and civil rights must be questioned. However, there is criticism from within the LGBTQIA+ community for the manner in which these cases have been argued in front of the Supreme Court and for how the court has responded to the issue.[footnoteRef:10] It has been argued that the characterisation of criminalisation of same-sex relationships and lack of State sanction over transgender identities or any other self-determined gender identity has been centred around the notion of family, love, and the romanticised idea of dignity.[footnoteRef:11] However, there has been little to no acknowledgment of the State violence towards persons based on their gender, specifically when such gender is thought to be opposed to social mores or differs from the gender assigned at birth.

     summary: Arthurs’ conclusions on this matter are ambivalent, acknowledging at one and the same time both the historical specificity of labour law: ’Labour law’ is labour law because within a particular configuration of historical circumstances we choose to apply that particular taxonomical label to a body of rules, a cluster of professional practices, and a field of scholarship (ibid, 16) and its uniqueness and importance: Similarly, Brian Langille, in embracing an account of labour law anchored by a principle of maximizing human freedom, comments: This is an account which is much deeper and broader than the old received wisdom about the scope and purpose of labour law … if we see labour law as underwritten by the idea of human freedom, we not only have a set of reasons for traditional labour law – but also for non-contractual approaches to work relations (informality, for example) and for other non-traditional labour law subjects (unpaid work, education, child care, and so on (Langille 2011, 114).

     summary: Measuring Labour and Rethinking Value Lisa Adkins* In this lecture, part of feminists@law's series on 'Labour, Value and Precarity in the Age of Austerity', Lisa Adkins considers the form of labour which has been at the very heart of feminist theorizations of immaterial labour, namely domestic labour. She considers transformations to this labour in the context of financialization, and in particular the direct links which are being forged between domestic labour and the creation of financial value.

     summary: Secondly, many abortion clinics are subject to Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers (TRAP) laws, additional regulations solely for abortion clinics. This form of misinformation weaponizes the law against pregnant women, intentionally keeping them oblivious about the time constraints of their reproductive decisions in their respective states and preventing them from being able to access legal abortion.

     summary: I will explain that Palestinian women are without any doubt more oppressed by Israel and Zionism than they are by their fellow Palestinian men, that a Palestinian woman’s freedom of movement, her right to an education, her right to vote, her right to work, her right to live where she wants, her right to sufficient food, clean water, and medical treatment in her own homeland are denied to her not by her fellow Palestinians but by the illegal occupying power, Israel.[footnoteRef:2] Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian documents in often painful detail the impact on Palestinian women of Israel’s will to contain and reduce the Palestinian population in East Jerusalem in particular (an area currently targeted with particular intensity for settlement expansion, given Israel’s determination to appropriate this historically Palestinian city as part of its “eternal capital”).

     summary: The various forms of oppression facing Palestinian women, and the discrimination that violates their rights (Rouhana, 1997), along with the Israeli state’s structural violence (Rouhana and Sultani, 2003) have proliferated. Portraying women as biopolitical threats to the existence of the settler colonial power, added to the geo-political need to dispossess their land and constrain them spatially, has effectively framed Palestinians as feared entities that can’t be trusted (e.g. Kassem, 2011) Grounded in the knowledge produced through my own position as a Palestinian feminist born and raised in Haifa, this paper delves into the nature of feminism for Palestinian women in the Jewish settler colonial state by asking three main questions: 1.

     summary: However, a resistance to anti-trans narratives has arisen from within grassroots Irish feminism, representing the true spirit of Irish women and feminists as trans-inclusionary – which was swiftly countered by other, anti-trans, groups, purporting to base a trans-exclusionary ideology in Irish nationalism and iconography. Fletcher shows how Britain was sometimes considered as infiltrating Irish Catholicism with “‘Protestant’ pro-choice values”;[footnoteRef:12] sometimes construed as a foreign power from which Irishness had to be protected; sometimes viewed as a necessary evil by pro-choice proponents who nevertheless saw its mistreatment of Irish women as a colonial operation.

     summary: [S]ince 1948 the Israeli authorities have pursued concerted policies of colonisation and appropriation of Palestinian land.

     summary: The text of the Mississippi law at issue in Dobbs began with the assertion that U.S. abortion law was out of step with the rest of the industrialised world and was instead comparable to the laws of China and North Korea – a dubious claim that, at the very least, ignored the abortion laws in the Netherlands, New Zealand, Iceland, Canada, Colombia, and the United Kingdom. While it would not be fair to say that U.S. abortion rights activists were ever complacent about the right to abortion, there was certainly a tendency to rely on the courts as the means to protect abortion access.

     summary: As opposed to legal parents, who can independently make an agreement on custody, residence and right of access and have it confirmed by the municipal social committee, non-legal parents must go to court and obtain an order, even if all parties agree and there is no conflict. According to Sanna Koulu (2014: 97), the 1983 reform entailed two crucial shifts: first, it prioritised agreements between parents over court decisions and gave legal parents the right to make agreements that could be enforced by municipal social committees without going through the court.

Similarly, the legal situation in which Russian lesbian families currently raise minors leaves non-biological mothers particularly vulnerable.

     summary: The analysis of my empirical data demonstrates that Russian natural mothers distance their children from the elder kinsfolk both physically and emotionally in order to limit the influence of the elder female kinsfolk on their children. Forms of maternal care for children other than natural parenting were seen by Russian natural mothers as unnatural, abnormal, against nature, or simply less ‘natural’, and therefore as wrong.

After this, I will discuss the general characteristics of everyday life in post-Soviet Cuba and move on to discuss the specific story of an Afro-Cuban, elderly woman who has come to experience sudden exclusions in her kin relations in the new Cuba.

     summary: Abstract This piece offers reflections on Liat Ben-Moshe’s recent book Decarcerating Disability: Deinstitutionalization and Prison Abolition and Linda Steele’s recent book Disability, Criminal Justice and Law: Reconsidering Court Diversion and their contributions to abolitionist work, disability justice and decarceration.  Within this wider context, it is an apt time to be discussing Ben-Moshe and Steele’s books as they both speak to important questions of resistance and strategy in challenging institutions of carceral control and violence.

     summary: Indeed, as Steele emphasizes “much of” this violence “is legal violence or takes place in institutional settings where individuals have ended up by legal decisions”.[footnoteRef:9] Steele calls for a “critical disability legal pedagogy,” and argues that “[l]egal pedagogy should be an integral aspect of contesting criminalised disabled people’s carceral control and debilitation”. As Steele maintains, court diversion programs rely on and exploit disability labels as a pathway for “coercive intervention that surpasses what is otherwise possible through criminal law.

     summary: My current work on the normalization of life sentences and what it means to centre people serving life sentences for murder in our abolitionist movements (Parkes 2021), is indebted to these insights from Decarcerating Disability and Ben-Moshe’s earlier work. Ben-Moshe shows how the tactic of starting with the most “challenging” work is a deeply feminist praxis, drawing on bell hooks and the act of shifting the margins to the centre (Ben-Moshe 2020, 125).

     summary: In this context, Ben-Moshe explores the limitations of the legal avenues for disability movements, arguing that “litigation and rights discourse draw on the state in fixing social ills of its own creation” (Ben-Moshe, 2020: 7.41). As above, both Ben-Moshe and Steele express caution about the law and its capacity to be utilised by disability movements as an agent of change.

     summary: It also points out tensions among a more assimilationist variant of disability deinstitutionalization (coding disability as white, middle class and heteronormative) and a more radically intersectional variant wherein disability (and/or debility, as advanced by Jasbir Puar)[footnoteRef:21] is denied the legal legitimation of disability rights. Today the numbers are back to pre-pandemic levels and institution-wide lockdowns are more frequent and prolonged than before.[footnoteRef:9] Conditions in disability institutions have likewise hit new lows.[footnoteRef:10] Yet again and again the critiques and praxis proper to prison abolitionism and disability deinstitutionalization pull apart.

Timorese women experience how TJ processes overlook these complexities because TJ, according to Pérez Vásquez, predominantly represents a masculine human rights strategy that intervenes in the lives of the post-colonial subjects.

     summary: The Arcane (1981) was the first place where Marxist Feminists systematised this discourse on immaterial domestic labour.

     summary: Much of the early, path-breaking work by legal feminists dealt with the lack of legal recognition of women’s reproductive labour as valuable whether in the fields of family law, tort law, welfare law, bankruptcy law, tax law, labour law (Silbaugh, 1996), property law, EU and international law (Conaghan, 2007), immigration law, tenancy law and household norms (Halley and Rittich, 2010) and now constitutional law (Suk, 2012). Redistributive feminists are also legal realists highlighting the contingency of legal categories (see also Fudge, 2014); thus, we may default to family law for recognising women’s reproductive labour, but we could well default to labour law.

     summary: This leads to a fourth and final insight I take from the tradition of social reproduction work I have been drawing from, and that’s the fact that social reproduction has always exceeded production, value extraction and capital accumulation, with pockets of non-capitalist or more-than-capitalist forms of economies always in existence. That is, as an historically and spatially contingent way of ordering and disciplining labour processes around the world, especially when there are no central coordinating mechanisms like the ones characterising planned economies.

Moreover, they fetishise the wage as the value of labour whilst - as Antonella Picchio (1992) reminded us in her wonderful Social Reproduction and the Labour Market – the wage is only one form of its pricing.

     summary: The entanglements between mobility and social reproduction A wide range of literature has placed social reproduction at the centre of migration processes. By building on these approaches, the literature on gender and migration has shown how female migrant workers play an essential role in the reproduction of contemporary societies on a global scale (Kofman and Raghuram, 2015), while the lens of social reproduction has been used to unveil gender and class hierarchies in the sexual division of labour as well as in global care chains (Anderson, 2000; Farris and Marchetti, 2017).

     summary: It’s not a surprise that when the legal powers as well as the resources are on one side, options on the other side are limited, there is no effective voice or input by the worker and the resulting terms of work arrangements are poor; consider who does domestic work but also other forms of low-paid service and production work. Let me get into this topic by briefly discussing a form of work that is emblematic of reproductive work yet, because it is also market work, problematic: domestic work.

While it is likely that Police Scotland officers approach decisions about what constitutes a relationship on a case-by-case basis, we suggest alterations to the Scottish guidance are needed, to take account of and reflect the diversity of modern relationships and offer greater clarity.

     summary: By proclaiming that the right to self-determination of gender is an illegitimate exercise of freedom, an overreach from fake women, and a sex denial by trans and queer individuals, gender critical feminists generate fear and repression in people. So, the only way out, for Butler, is to align the fight for gender freedoms and rights with the criticism of capitalism and to articulate the freedoms we strive for as collective objectives.

     summary: In a study of almost 9000 Germans, a noticeable gender disparity was found among users of the internet aged 10 to 50: females compared to males were considerably more likely to have experienced the effects of online stalking and the trauma of this kind of violence was greater among women victims (Staude-Müller et al., 2012). We use a techno-feminist perspective to argue that deepfake technology is an addition to the tools that are used to form a patriarchal-capitalist society.

     summary: Many feminists built on Judith Butler’s path-breaking notion of gender as performance, to challenge the idea of “woman,” or even a conception of any shared reality of “woman” that could be the basis of some kind of account of gender that could give us a comprehensive notion of women’s oppression and women’s freedom. But that said, my concern to rethink the feminine within sexual difference was not only to hold open a space for utopian possibility: it was also to recognize that the problem with the idea of woman or women was that it not only homogenized a group that was in fact very diverse, but that it operated to erase racial, cultural, and ethnic difference, an erasure that went against the very idea of what I had named “ethical feminism.”

The unique feature of this research is that its methodology was based on the understanding that young people should be allowed to speak for themselves, that this is a human rights matter, and that only by enabling young people to participate not simply as objects but as co-designers of research, can we fully realise the problems facing young women growing up with violence and abuse, and work towards their solution.

Pinning free movement (one of the most crucial aspects of EU citizenship) to economic activity serves to illustrate the continuing difficulties of EU law in not considering substantive barriers to certain groups in trying to access EU rights.

The decision by Lord Hodge, Lady Rose and Lady Simler, with Lords Reed and Lloyd-Jones concurring, sets out that, for the purposes of the EA, the terms ‘man’ and ‘woman’ are intended to refer solely to ‘biological sex’ as determined at birth.[footnoteRef:5]

Indeed, what was once celebrated as making rights visible may in the post-Brexit era encourage the development of overly technical definitions that are void of context, create blind spots, and significantly reduce the effectiveness of sex discrimination law. _____________________________________________________________________________________ 20 _____________________________________________________________________________________ 19

And if we view biological sex more broadly to include secondary sex characteristics (such as bone density, body hair, height, and voice pitch), the categories of male and female pretty much cease to be useful.

     summary: Under the title “The Forgotten Foundations of Feminist Legal Scholarship, Part I (1970-1985)” the workshop sought to understand why, unlike in other fields in the humanities and social sciences, contemporary feminist legal scholarship appears to have no consolidated history and almost no canonical texts; and why individual studies, however radical or sophisticated, appear situated only in the ‘feminist present’, with legal feminism’s past appearing essentially void of any heritage deemed worthy of being handed down. It is as if what credits feminist legal scholarship with contemporaneity is precisely the erasure of these earlier texts from its horizon.

      flesch: 48
     summary: My contention is that the main thing that is lacking in how courts and much of the scholarship on substantive equality approach equality, is ambiguity. Drawing on De Beauvoir and the extent to which substantive equality scholarship hasn’t relied on her insights, I contemplate the question whether and how ambiguity could come into the picture.

      flesch: 44
     summary: In a recent anthology, Breanne Fahs revisits the peculiar genre of feminist manifestos, noting that they have a ‘particularly obscure history’ and that ‘[u]ntil recently, almost nothing had been written about feminist manifestos at all’.[footnoteRef:7] In her introduction Fahs deftly reflects – quoting Jeannette Winterson – that ‘[we] seem to have run in a great circle, and met [ourselves] again on the starting line’.[footnoteRef:8] This déjà vu seems particularly resonant for feminist manifestos on social reproduction.

      flesch: 37
     summary: In opposition to radical feminists’ tendency to treat gender violence as a discrete, albeit endemic problem of patriarchy (MacKinnon 1989), for feminist materialists gender violence cannot be decoupled from socio-economic patterns and variables of labour, poverty, reproduction and the disciplining of bodies within capitalism in daily lives (True 2012; Goldblatt and Rai 2020). Within a feminist political economy analysis of gender violence, sites of social reproduction are also best understood as a “heterotopia” (Foucault 1986: 24) To understand gendered violence in new materialist feminist terms, one first must understand the perception of gender as something that is always enacted in relation to various instances and circumstances.

       words: 9154
      flesch: 48
     summary: Read together, these early writings help us to understand why so many women, on both the Right and the Left, believe that their equality can be achieved while other women continue to be prostituted, and why women continue to look the other way when faced with this expression of male sexual entitlement. Sometimes this is explained away by saying that the sex drive is natural for human beings, although women do not buy sex from men or other women in large numbers to satisfy their own “natural” sex drives.

     summary: Having revealed this reality, women workers are then able to collectively change it. Federici genders Marx’s description of primitive accumulation or expropriation to tell the bloody history of women workers, who, like men, were divorced from the land and forced to rely on wage labour to survive, but unlike men, were divorced from their previous labours, ways of living, and forms of knowledge and forced into the home to perform the necessary reproductive work of raising and nourishing their husbands and a family of future workers (2004: 74-75).

Abstract This paper examines the spectrum of sexual violence that permeates women's lives, among others, often unnoticed by most of society.

     summary: Located within a broader policy context of growing concern over the low rate of convictions for rape cases and set against a backdrop of substantial reform of rape law, not just in England and Wales but around the globe, the police handling of rape investigations has attracted repeated criticism and public scrutiny. Looking beyond the UK, it is clear that both tort and human rights arguments have been successfully invoked to redress systemic and operational problems pertaining to the police conduct of rape investigations.

     summary: On the other hand, one might add that the influence of Foucault on feminist jurisprudence and feminist legal theory has been much less pronounced, in spite of the obvious value of Foucault’s work for critical legal theory more generally. One probable reason for this is the uncanny resemblance of Foucault’s ‘sexless subject’ to the abstract sexless subject of law which feminist legal theory has been tirelessly critiquing since its inception (giving rise to feminist works with titles such as: “unspeakable subjects”, “the hidden gender of law”, “sexing the subject of law”, and so on).

Thus, they claim, the tendency towards the hegemony of biopolitical production requires that we deal with ‘the new conditions of the production of surplus value’ - as value production invests all realms of life exceeding the confines of formal work time (Ibid:137) - so as to be able to identify the new (post-Fordist) forms of exploitation.

That is, projects in which social movements do not become the State (thus losing their essence and agency as social movements), nor are eliminated by the State (as Ecuador is endeavoring to do), but are instead active participants in pushing what Breny refers to as “political methodologies.”

     summary: In the context of increasing reliance by asylum seekers and refugees on the European Court of Human Rights (‘the Court’) as a protection mechanism against return to ill-treatment, torture and persecution, examination of the Court’s approach is essential. The Role of the European Court of Human Rights in the Protection of Women Fleeing Gender-Based Violence in their Home Countries Christel Querton*  This is an audio recording of a paper given at the Socio-Legal Studies Association Annual Conference, Newcastle University, 5-7 April 2017.

      flesch: 37
     summary: Like in Honduras, in countries that have shifted to the left at the state level (e.g., Ecuador, Bolivia, Venezuela), many activists and critical scholars have pointed out the multiple processes taking place simultaneously, and as part of this, the ongoing contradictions among the goals of social movements and those of socialist states. As I have followed the debates within social movements and in the constitutional assembly process, a few key disjunctures stand out, including the following: (1) the well-known disjuncture between the turn to the left and the decolonial turn; (2) a lack of analysis of the governance of intimacy (Lind 2010a) and biopolitics in both leftist and decolonial accounts of “another world”; and (3) decolonial vs. liberal challenges posed by activists in the remaking of Latin American nations.

     summary: But they do limit the available choices, and generally exclude political violence, and often personal violence, as one of them. A movement that sincerely calls for a Constituent Assembly as its main goal, an Assembly that is elected peacefully and where all groups, even enemies, can be represented, is probably a movement that eschews political violence and values dialogue.

     summary: It instead lies in its promoting an understanding of specifics of the feminist engagement with and critique of Swedish gender equality law and policy through contributors’ discussions of major themes of western feminism - motherhood, labour, immigration, disability and sexual exploitation. The discursive space opened by the critical engagement with the history and current state of Swedish gender equality law and policy, should not be easily dismissed as either just another example of the same or as something of a curiosity, a place to meet a way of thinking from a different part of the world.

     summary: Finally, we will explore the changes to gender equality policy brought about by Sweden’s membership of the European Union; for example, the increasing focus on individual rights and anti-discrimination strategies coupled with the decreasing concern about the structural patterns of gender inequalities. A prominent characteristic of the Swedish model is truly the fact that gender equality policy is closely intertwined with the Swedish welfare state ideology.

Refugees and refugee law are therefore now located at the centre of concern about illegal migration.

     summary: Under neoliberalism, the entry of women into the labour market, the full commodification of women's work and increasing economic disparities between men have resulted in some women becoming 'honorary individuals', substantially autonomous of men, with the consequent disruption of both men's political and sexual domination of women. This process has, in turn, given rise to a violent, misogynist and antidemocratic backlash in the form of neopopulism, in which men who have lost out economically feel a sense of deprivation, blame women, and seek a return to earlier forms of patriarchal domination.

     summary: Building on Pateman’s insights into the construction of the family and marriage in political thought, the paper shows how law and legal thought contributed to the disaggregation of work and family life, and constructed (in place of the household) a legal conception of the private family that revolved around the married couple. This paper is an historical study of the dissolution of the productive household in (primarily) nineteenth-century English law and legal thought.

     summary: Research data as a common resource Emergence of the idea that research data are a common resource The notion of treating research data as a common and indeed global resource appears to date back to at least the 1950s, when it was institutionally established through the formation of World Data Centers (particularly in the geophysical sciences) designed to minimise the risk of data loss and maximise data access (Shapley and Hart 1982). Research data are therefore being defined as public resources, public property, and public outputs of research: “research data will increasingly be the starting point for new research as well as a key output” (UKRDS 2009: 1; see also CARL 2009: 4).

     summary: This relationship between prostitution and domestic service is highlighted by researchers taking the ‘sex work position’ on prostitution (Jeffreys, 2009), but such approaches hardly recognise relations of domination among the sexes. On the other hand, researchers taking an abolitionist position on prostitution, who do recognise relations of domination among the sexes, tend to ignore or deny the existence of any link between prostitution and domestic service.

     summary: India banned surrogacy on reported deaths of surrogate mothers and egg donors, custody battles for children, abandonment of disabled and undesired children and exploitation of women, apart from trafficking for surrogacy. The surrogacy practice maintains patriarchy through familial persuasion and contracts that control and exploit women’s bodies and effect triple-alienation: from the children born, from their own body and physical alienation.

     summary: The central principles of the regulation of surrogacy in the UK are set out in the Surrogacy Arrangements Act 1985; s.1A states that surrogacy arrangements are unenforceable and s.2 prohibits commercial surrogacy. Thus, this paper argues that this absence of contemporary consideration of the contractual nature of surrogacy arrangements reflects the disregarding of the sexual contract that Pateman identified 30 years ago.

     summary: A key problem with mounting a challenge to policies that roll back equality laws is that feminism’s demand for equality has lost its emancipatory edge.[footnoteRef:68] Equality for women workers is not enough since such claims are compatible with the rampant commodification of care, increasing polarization amongst women, and increasing inequality for men. [footnoteRef:49] Since it is mostly women who assume the family roles of migrant women, there is a growing need for reconciliation policies in the South.[footnoteRef:50]

     summary: As Patricia Hill Collins has noted, Black women’s relationship to both paid labour and unpaid work in the home is significantly different from that of white women: A less developed but equally important theme concerns how Black women’s unpaid family labor is simultaneously confining and empowering for Black women. This means that the experiences of black women, Asian women (and, in other contexts, indigenous women) are erased or suppressed by the theories and politics of left feminisms.

     summary: Open access law journals have a unique role to play in hosting such dialogues, highlighting the limits of intellectual property frameworks and their disempowering effects for the relational practices of creativity and authorship that characterize the way digital technologies might ideally function in human worlds of sociality. Feminist legal theory and open access movements are approached generally in order to highlight their points of intersection, which is not to deny the more nuanced dimensions of these critical movements.

     summary: Again, however, Bourdieu assumes passivity on the part of those subject to the inevitability of neo-liberal theory and practice. One begins to wonder if, rather than highlighting the effects of so-called neo-liberal policies as happens here, a wholesale review of the very assumptions made about what characterises neo-liberal practice is required.

      flesch: 57
     summary: Part and parcel of her methodology, Downing reflects on Foucault’s argument that a murder defendant’s behaviour is made to retrospectively correspond with his identity as a criminal (8). The use of the masculine pronoun here is important, for as many feminist legal scholars point out, liberal conceptions of law have painted the picture of the ‘rational’ person as an autonomous, rugged man ‘geared toward maximizing his self-interest effectively, efficiently, and expediently’.[footnoteRef:4] This is evident in legal standards such as the ‘reasonable man’ which position rationality akin to masculinity; and as Downing shows, women who murder are often treated particularly harshly or as though they were not really female at all (102).

Other examples of these authorial asides are of some lengthy descriptions of other murder cases such as that of George Joseph Smith (page 123) and Jack the Ripper (page 165), and it is here that it is most apparent that this book may be intended for a non-specialist market that may not have direct knowledge of the cases and the issues that they raise.

     summary: The central issue the author interrogates in the context of infant death is the construction of criminal responsibility – and specifically a mother’s criminal responsibility – in contemporary society, and what this construction reveals both about the cultural expectations of mothers and the truth-finding claims of the legal system. These inroads into reducing infant deaths also heightened pressure on paediatric forensic pathologists to produce better autopsy protocols and investigations into the increasingly rare death of an infant.

     summary: But further, because of the heavy reliance on expert evidence in the case against Folbigg, and as has been made explicit in recent coverage of the case, there are other connections—in particular there are aspects of the emerging crisis in the forensic sciences that can be mapped onto this case.[footnoteRef:5] These two cases speak to the related, but also broader question of how courts manage (or fail to manage) incriminating expert evidence, and, like Folbigg, speak to the failures of the adversarial trial and safeguards to adequately manage the expert evidence in the case, and in particular the failure of the ‘safeguard’ that is prosecutorial restraint—prosecutorial obligations of fairness that are a prominent feature of the rhetoric underpinning the conduct of criminal trials in Australia.[footnoteRef:11]

     summary: These are places where collective action strategies can be outlined for empowerment, for combating gender violence and for advocating health and sexual pleasure. There is a close connection between the ongoing move towards capitalist, neoliberal structures and gender violence, which is perpetuated in such an environment as a result of new ways of segmenting and fragmenting work, marginalisation, forced unemployment, exploitation and impoverishment; the welfare system is being gradually dismantled under the pretext of debt restructuring.

     summary: Though there have been other admirable examinations of the gendered nature of the law since this book appeared, notably Joanne Conaghan’s Law and Gender (OUP, 2013), Women and the Law remains indispensable for its clear and historically grounded account of the impact of our law on women and its analysis of how change comes about and how and why it is all too often hindered and resisted. What Women and the Law does is reveal the ways that the structural inequalities based on sex and the continuing injustices suffered by women continue to be maintained in spite of the legal ‘progress’ in every area of our lives.

       words: 894
      flesch: 32
     summary: In chapter one, Goodmark briefly outlines the drawbacks of the state reliance on criminalization: the approach absolves the state from having to confront the underpinning structural arrangements that incubate the offending behaviour; it disproportionately and negatively impacts already marginalized women (‘women of color’, for example, are less likely to voluntarily engage the criminal justice system); incarceration reduces the life chances of the ex-prisoner and impacts on families, ‘deforming’ the lives of those connected to the prisoner (17); criminalization does little to prevent domestic violence and its huge costs still afford little protection to the intended beneficiaries. Thirdly, Goodmark would welcome community responses and organization as a means of holding perpetrators accountable (including through restorative justice) and as an effective way of shifting community norms that tolerate intimate partner violence.

     summary: I will leave then the questions raised by the contents of the papers: the property and administrative law questions; the problems of law reform, and public housing; the very idea of the social - the idea of where Home sits as responsibility of and space for and by the polis, in Arendt’s terms; not to mention how we tell and account for home, and its pasts. They not only ask us to think about home conceptually and doctrinally as a lived experience of law, but in doing so, as Helen Carr says, they show a site and a way of acting with law that connects with the tradition of feminist praxis concerned with reimaging how we might live.

     summary: Law and the Subject The perspective I wish to reconsider is that of the positivist separation of law. Law as an abstract and fictional object might be separate from religious, moral, or social norms similarly abstracted from selves, but there is little sense in saying that law is experientially or existentially separate in any sense.

     summary: Despite being seemingly insignificant, the second sentence – “there have undoubtedly been incidents of violence between them” – is in fact a statement which represents the a-priori knowledge of the discourse: domestic violence is an episodic phenomenon, physical violence is seen as its core. In this process of growing acknowledgement of the harm it inflicts in intimate relationships, coercive control is being inserted into existing discourses around domestic violence.

     summary: In this section, we want to reflect on some of the tensions and challenges that we experienced, as well as some things that – with hindsight – we would have done differently, in the hopes of offering insights for those who might seek to embed creative perspectives in similar ways in other legal projects in the future. In bringing art and law together in one project and attempting to see legal judgments from various perspectives simultaneously, we hoped to lay bare both the raw power of law and its ‘real-world’ effects, as well as the tools and techniques at its core that might be open to reworking.

     summary: This collection of articles and commentaries collectively explores critical and interdisciplinary approaches to the future of legal gender, but they do not take a single common path. Whilst there is now a very established and vibrant field of feminist legal research in Britain, social attitudes to legal gender are under-researched, as Peel and Newman point out.

     summary: This could render gender status illegal or, at least, beyond state law’s regulatory structure, its terms of recognition or gaze.[footnoteRef:15] A strong version of decertification, in the case of sex/ gender, could lead state law to withdraw from providing remedies for discrimination, from collecting data on gender-based inequalities, and from allowing gender terms to publicly animate services, organisations, policy decisions, and so on.[footnoteRef:16] Rather than abolishing legal gender status, it involves diversifying gender categories to reflect (in more, or less, open ways) people’s own self-identifications.

     summary: The article uses the example of single sex schools to consider two key questions regarding potential reforms in this area. [4: Although most schools could more accurately be described as “single-gender”, in the sense that they often prioritise students’ gender identity over their legal sex as registered on their birth certificate, I am using the term “single-sex” as this is the terminology primarily used by educators and policy experts in this area, although school policies tend to refer to “gender”.]

     summary: So perhaps girls’ schools have a benefit in empowering girls, but in looking at the full picture by including boys’ school, this single-sex focus might also translate into further entrenchment of gender norms, toxic masculinity, and the social and institutional fixity of binary gender. In terms of structural change, it is this that would be worth devoting attention to on a societal level in order to give us tools to combat transphobia and cissexism as well as general micro- and macro-aggressions built into any system or institution that is reliant, explicitly or implicitly, on binary gender – which is to say, every institution in one way or another.

     summary: Feminist research has for decades been premised on including marginalised voices and contesting the researcher/researched power relationships (for example, Smith 1988; Browne 2003; McDowell 1992; Moss 1993; 2002; Stanley and Wise 1993).[footnoteRef:2] Many feminist research principles then focused on research as a politicised site that seeks to work towards empowerment and inclusion of the most vulnerable and marginalised, through socially engaged research that is critical of hegemonic and disempowering relations. In other words, they are often women with whom feminist research would seek to include and empower.

      flesch: 40
     summary: If gender is political, intersectional, dynamic and located, then taking up responsibility for institutional gender is to produce an institutional response to dynamic intersectional gender relations that aligns with representational gender justice. And, while influential feminist texts have insightfully pointed to the difficulties of turning to the law for instituting gender justice and rights, it is also the case that gendered and sexual rights are fundamental to a life of liberty and dignity.

     summary: They include – amongst other things – a responsibility to represent faithfully one’s unique experiences, create space for others to articulate alternative accounts, challenge institutions that inhibit recognition of those experiences, subvert scenes in which gender norms are staged and performed, demand resources to realise alternative scenes, or hold institutions to account for the visions of gender they endorse. As is ably demonstrated across this special issue, although it is not always a simple matter to do so, with contested questions remaining as to what precisely a demand for recognition entails, there is a compelling case in contemporary society for respecting personal experiences of gender identity in all their complexity.

     summary: Even if I am wrong in suggesting that the technique of legislative drafting originated with the technique of drafting settlements, even if the kinship is only analogical, the analogy illuminates one sense in which legislative drafting techniques ‘have helped usher in specific legal and textual formations with attached concepts and ontologies that have travelled far and combined with other long-lasting bureaucratic and wider social understandings of gender’ (Grabham, this issue). With legislative drafting in mind, what is relevant here is the implication of gender in grammatical technique.

     summary: In fact, one could argue that in the environment of a GIL statute book, gender specific language would have even more impact in drawing the users’ attention to the specific position of women in gender specific legislative texts. From the point of view of substantive law, gender inclusive legislation expresses to a fuller extent the constitutional principle of equality in the eyes of the law: everyone, not just men and women, is equal before the eyes of the law.

Gender as private identity Accounts of gender as self-determined (or self-identified) routinely treat gender as something that is, and should be respected as, “deeply personal” (Davis 2014:

     summary: Walter Benjamin’s problematisation of legal violence comes to mind here, calling us to consider the ways in which the law legitimises its own violence, thus allowing its character as violent to recede from view (Benjamin [1920] 1979). Judith Butler notes that “in Benjamin’s view, legal violence regularly renames its own violent character as justifiable coercion or legitimate force, but these terms sanitise the violence at issue” (Butler 2016: 40.48).

     summary: [13: For a discussion of non-action as a “missed opportunity” in the UK see Simon Murphy and Libby Brooks, “UK government drops gender self-identification plan for trans people” (September 2020), The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/sep/22/uk-government-drops-gender-self-identification-plan-for-trans-people.] Canadians, in particular, sit at a unique historical legal moment that for the most part is wrapped in formal equality. My aim, in this review, is to take up the challenge posed by Singer and Katri in their foreword – to turn a critical, legal and emotional gaze towards trans people at the margins,[footnoteRef:32] and tease out of these articles, diverse as they are, some common threads and themes.

     summary: When reflecting on the work of the ending VAWG movement, some thoughts came to my mind: The raised profile of violence against women issues has its positive outcomes, such as funding for services, however it has also led to the competitive tendering of services, and we are faced with corporates like G4S winning contracts for sexual and domestic violence services, at the expense of women organising. Eki is a trafficking survivor and had insecure immigration status.
