Today however, given the failure to achieve material and psychic equality for women, feminists have come to challenge the usefulness of equality as a concept, a particular definition, or a basis for strategising. The papers in this collection reflect these concerns, primarily in the context of English-speaking, common law cultures.  Collectively, the papers analyse a range of equality projects across a number of areas of public and private law, considering both competing conceptions of equality and alternatives to it.  In taking stock across a century and a half and around the globe, the book illustrates the range of ways in which equality projects in law have been challenged by, and remain a challenge for, feminism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e“...a good primer to a rich set of theoretical arguments and debates, providing a solid overview, not just of international legal development through a feminist lens, but also feminist thought more generally. The extensive footnotes will be prized by law and APD scholars, as well as those looking at projects relating to the expression of gender in institutions more broadly. The collection represents a great effort by Hunter and her colleagues.” —\u003ci\u003eThe Law and Politics Book Review, Vol. 19 No.1\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781841138404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Hart Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":40731849392334,"sku":"9781841138404","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_0f7340ff-d8c4-457a-94ec-6a363ed1a14c.jpg?v=1641187308","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781841138404","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
