LW3022 Gender, Law, And Identity
Will investigate the various ways in which gendered norms of identity are defined, constructed, enforced, managed and even adjudicated through the narratives that inform and produce our social and legal realties. Class readings will include works by Judith Butler, Wendy Brown, Drucilla Cornell, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Nancy Fraser, Michel Foucault, Angela Harris, Nivedita Menon, and Denise da Silva, among others.
