Details

This book gives the first in-depth assessment of how justification functions when women are claiming equality.

One of its distinctive characteristics is the question of whether any analytical entwining or unwinding of equality and justification enhances the protection of women's rights to equality in constitutional democracies. It proposes an asymmetric relationship between equality and justification, and takes a 3-part approach, looking at theory, practice and methodological design.

This is an intriguing, articulate and compelling examination of a question with real and applied significance to human rights and equality lawyers.
