Over the past 15 years there has been a marked increase in the international scholarship relating to women in law. The lives and careers of women in legal practice and the judiciary have been extensively documented and critiqued, but the central conundrum remains: does the presence of women make a difference?
The position of women in the legal academy has been largely overlooked in its literature, although it is central to the changing culture. To remedy that oversight, an international network of scholars embarked on a comparative study, resulting in this ground-breaking book.
The contributors uncover fascinating accounts of the careers of academic pioneers as well as exploring broader theoretical issues relating to gender and culture. Each contribution is informed by the provocative question as to whether the presence of women makes a difference.
