Trapped By A Paradox: Speculations On Why Female Law Professors Find It Hard To Fit Into Law School Cultures, Beverly I. Moran
Trapped By A Paradox: Speculations On Why Female Law Professors Find It Hard To Fit Into Law School Cultures, Beverly I. Moran
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Feminist psychologists postulate that women are more people focused than men and therefore less likely to be attracted to rule oriented cultures that do not take into account personal differences and needs. This work postulates that the opposite is true of males and females who are attracted to law school teaching. Instead of rule oriented men and people oriented women, the legal academy is populated by women who believe that rules are meant to protect the weak against the tyranny of the strong and who then find themselves in "female" cultures ruled by men.
Sex, Gender, And September 11, Hilary Charlesworth, Christine M. Chinkin
Sex, Gender, And September 11, Hilary Charlesworth, Christine M. Chinkin
Articles
The October 2001 issue of the American Journal ofInternational Law contained several editorials on the international law implications of the hijackings of September 11, 2001, and their aftermath.' In one respect these editorials resemble other writings on these events in academic and popular media: questions of sex and gender are largely overlooked.' In our view, however, concepts of sex and gender provide a valuable perspective on these devastating actions.' We use the term "sex" here to refer to issues about women as distinct biological beings from men, and the term "gender" to encompass social understandings of femininity and masculinity. Although …

Feminism And International Law: An Opportunity For Transformation, Rosa Ehrenreich Brooks
Feminism And International Law: An Opportunity For Transformation, Rosa Ehrenreich Brooks
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
In this essay, the author wants to outline briefly both some of the ways in which the assumptions and categories of international law can be damaging to women, and also some of the ways in which creative feminists could use international law to transform both international policy and the domestic political and legal discourse. In the wake of September 11, a robust feminist engagement with international law and policy is more urgent than ever before.
Something To Remember, Something To Celebrate: Women At Columbia Law School In, Barbara Aronstein Black
Something To Remember, Something To Celebrate: Women At Columbia Law School In, Barbara Aronstein Black
Faculty Scholarship
In this issue the Columbia Law Review joins in the celebration the 75th anniversary of the admission of women to the Columbia Law School. I am grateful to the editors of the Review for inviting me to contribute, and for the open-endedness of the invitation (or, in other words, what follows is my fault, not theirs). This has been an opportunity for me to do some research, some recalling and some reflection (and to tell a few stories). My research is incomplete, one might say sketchy, but I trust reliable as far as it goes. My recollections may well not …

Women Imagining Justice, Katherine M. Franke
Women Imagining Justice, Katherine M. Franke
Faculty Scholarship
I'm enormously honored to be here with such an impressive group of women interested in the complex question of Women, Justice, and Authority. Thanks to Judith Resnik and Mary Clark and the students working with them for all their hard work in putting this outstanding weekend together.
The five of us are charged with the unenviable task of "Imagining Justice," a task not significantly less daunting than, say, imagining truth, humor, or community. In preparation for this afternoon, I've been in my office or in the subway trying to imagine justice and after some time, was horrified when I discovered …

Parallel Lives: Women's Rights And Lesbian Rights Litigation, Suzanne B. Goldberg
Parallel Lives: Women's Rights And Lesbian Rights Litigation, Suzanne B. Goldberg
Faculty Scholarship
I love the title of this panel because it gave me a chance to think about the historical themes and emerging issues in law related to women's rights, which of course is a mere endless set of possibilities.
I spent much of the last decade doing lesbian and gay civil rights litigation, and the question that I will focus on today grows out of that work and is a comparative one or at least a relational one. The question is this: What is the relationship between women's rights litigation as it has evolved in the last thirty years and lesbian …
