Confrontation And Domestic Violence Post-Davis: Is There And Should There Be A Doctrinal Exception, Eleanor Simon 2011 Harvard Law School

Confrontation And Domestic Violence Post-Davis: Is There And Should There Be A Doctrinal Exception, Eleanor Simon

Michigan Journal of Gender & Law

Close to five million intimate partner rapes and physical assaults are perpetrated against women in the United States annually. Domestic violence accounts for twenty percent of all non-fatal crime experienced by women in this county. Despite these statistics, many have argued that in the past six years the Supreme Court has "put a target on [the] back" of the domestic violence victim, has "significantly eroded offender accountability in domestic violence prosecutions," and has directly instigated a substantial decline in domestic violence prosecutions. The asserted cause is the Court's complete and groundbreaking re-conceptualization of the Sixth Amendment right of a criminal …


Parenting And Pregnant Students: An Evaluation Of The Implementation Of The Other Title Ix, Michelle Gough 2011 Indiana University School of Education

Parenting And Pregnant Students: An Evaluation Of The Implementation Of The Other Title Ix, Michelle Gough

Michigan Journal of Gender & Law

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 prohibits gender discrimination. Although pregnancy has been described as the "quintessential sex difference," Title IX's prohibition of gender discrimination in the context of parenting and pregnant students has often been left out of the discussion, and therefore the understanding, of the implementation of Title IX Regulations. The scholarship discussing the topic shows general agreement that the language and spirit of Title IX has not been given effect thus far by our schools or by some courts. This Article begins by looking to the Title IX regulations themselves and then to the research …


Women, Vulnerability, And Humanitarian Emergencies, Fionnuala Ni Aolain 2011 University of Minnesota Law School

Women, Vulnerability, And Humanitarian Emergencies, Fionnuala Ni Aolain

Michigan Journal of Gender & Law

The catastrophic dimensions of humanitarian emergencies are increasingly understood and more visible to states and international institutions. There is greater appreciation for the social, economic and political effects that follow in the short to long term from the devastating consequences of humanitarian emergencies. There is also recognition of the gendered dimensions of humanitarian emergencies in policy and institutional contexts. It is generally acknowledged that women are overrepresented in the refugee and internally displaced communities that typically result from many humanitarian crises. Women bear acute care responsibilities in most societies and also disproportionately bear familial and communal care responsibilities in communities …


Feminists And Firearms: Why Are So Many Women Anti-Choice?, Lindsay K. Charles 2011 Goodwin Procter LLP

Feminists And Firearms: Why Are So Many Women Anti-Choice?, Lindsay K. Charles

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that gun rights should be recognized as a feminist issue, emphasizing women's autonomy, safety, and equality. It challenges the conventional narrative that gun control aligns with feminist values, asserting that disarming women disempowers them and undermines their ability to defend themselves. The author advocates for women's right to bear arms as a means of self-defense, drawing parallels to other feminist issues like abortion, and proposes a rebuttable presumption for issuing concealed carry permits to women.


Corporations And Human Rights Law: The Emerging Consensus And Its Effects On Women's Employment Rights, Tiana O'Konek 2011 Yeshiva University, Cardozo School of Law

Corporations And Human Rights Law: The Emerging Consensus And Its Effects On Women's Employment Rights, Tiana O'Konek

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that the current international human rights framework fails to adequately address corporate human rights abuses, particularly affecting women in the garment industry. This governance gap stems from the statist nature of international law, which overlooks non-state actors like corporations. Women in the garment industry, often confined to informal and precarious work, face systemic discrimination and exclusion from core labor protections, highlighting the need for a more inclusive and enforceable framework.
