Eskridge (law, Georgetown U.) and Hunter (law, Brooklyn School) believe that gender and sexuality will be the future "crucible" on which equal protection doctrine will be forged, providing a lively, scholarly presentation of pertinent legal documents across a broad range of politically charged legal debates. The reference text considers constitutional, historical and theoretical groundings (heavy on the Foucault) and specific legal conundrums such as whether to publish rape victims' names, the outing of gays and lesbians, issues of family law, sexual harassment, prostitution, obscenity, and transsexual rights. Includes six appendices documenting statutes, ordinances, and provisions to the Constitution, and laws in Wisconsin, Texas, and California. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Bringing together an international range of academics, Gender, Sexualities and Law provides a comprehensive interrogation of the range of contemporary issues – both topical and controversial – raised by the gendered character of law, legal discourse and institutions. The gendering of law, persons and the legal profession, along with the gender bias of legal outcomes, has been a fractious, but fertile, focus of reflection. It has, moreover, been an important site of political struggle. This collection of essays offers an unrivalled examination of its various contemporary dimensions, focusing on: issues of theory and representation; violence, both national and international; reproduction and parenting; and partnership, sexuality, marriage and the family. Gender, Sexualities and Law will be invaluable for all those engaged in research and study of the law (and related fields) as a form of gendered power.

This volume examines the role of law as a tool for advancing women’s rights and gender equity in local, national, and global contexts. Many feminist scholars note a marked failure of law to achieve goals connected to women’s rights and gender equality. Despite its limitations, law provides aspirational norms that can be mobilized to hold institutions accountable and to provide material benefit to those excluded from systems of power. In conversation with each other, the chapters in this volume help to advance understanding of both the limitations and the potential of law as a tool for advancing democratic participation, rights, and justice around issues related to gender and sexuality. Contributors acknowledge, to varying degrees, that law has important symbolism and may be used as a lever to mobilize change. At the same time, some offer cautionary notes about the potential downside risks and unintended consequences of relying upon law in pursuit of women’s rights and gender equity. Collectively, the chapters in this volume explore the disjuncture between the promise and expectation of legal reform and the lived experience of those laws by people intended as the beneficiaries of legal change. This book was originally published as a special issue of Global Discourse.

This casebook offers professors and students a doctrinally comprehensive, theoretically ambitious, and up-to-date exploration of the treatment of sexuality and gender issues in American public law. The Fifth Edition opens with the historically grounded first chapter from earlier editions, which maps the three primary constitutional themes of liberty, equality, and expression through the end of the twentieth century. Throughout, the book fully integrates the ramifications stemming from the latest court decisions, including Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization and new religious liberty decisions and debates. Highlights of the Fifth Edition include: A probing of where the Court's turn in recent years toward an equal liberty analysis stands in the wake of Dobbs, including threats posed by the reversal of Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey to the doctrinal foundations of Lawrence v. Texas and Obergefell v. Hodges. The increasing prominence of the argument that discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer-identified persons constitutes discrimination "because of sex," as recognized by the Supreme Court's opinion in Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia, interpreting Title VII, and the related question of how Bostock will affect interpretation of the Equal Protection Clause and other antidiscrimination statutes. Increased coverage of how the First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act are being deployed aggressively by the Supreme Court to carve out exemptions and allowances for individuals, companies, and religious institutions to discriminate against women and LGBTQ persons. Examples include questions such as whether Fulton v. Philadelphia limits or partially overrules Obergefell by requiring a government program to discriminate against same-sex married couples and the extent to which expansion of "the ministerial exception" undermines workplace protections. The book's distinctive fourth chapter introduces the student to natural law theory (which is on the upswing in federal courts), feminist and other liberal theories, and postmodern theories claiming that what many people treat as inflexible and natural are actually contingent, socially constructed, and dynamic. Increased coverage of issues related to transgender people in a range of contexts, including custody and visitation actions involving transgender parents or transgender children, schools and the workplace, on athletic teams, in the military, and in prisons. The Fifth Edition expands upon the book's distinctive integration of sexuality and gender issues and increases coverage of the racialization of these dynamics in American law. From its first edition, this casebook has prioritized inclusion of the perspectives of transgender and intersex persons, as well as lesbians and straight women, gay men, and bisexuals of different races and ethnicities. In addition to the opening segments focused on constitutional law and theory, the remaining chapters contain the most comprehensive and deepest coverage available of sexuality and gender issues in the workplace, the family, schools, the armed forces, and prisons.

"In the past decade, people whose bodies, genders or sexualities differ from socially expected norms have become more visible and have been granted greater recognition within the law. Yet despite this, many service providers do not have a strong understanding of the social and legal issues that continue to have a significant impact on these diverse groups of people and their relationships and families. In order to address this knowledge gap, this book brings together research findings from often disparate disciplines into an accessible and useful form for practitioners, as well as for researchers, academics, students, and the general public. Part 1 defines key terms, and addresses the psychosocial and legal issues faced by trans or gender diverse, intersex, and/or non-heterosexual individuals. Part 2 looks at the psychosocial and legal aspects of couple relationships. Part 3 considers parenting and families. Part 4 discusses practical tips for professionals working with this client group, including specific content for lawyers and mediators. As a whole, this book both questions the presumed neutrality of the law, yet insists that it is possible for the law to play a key role in challenging cisgenderism and heterosexism."--Back cover.
