Learning outcomes
This course’s aims are: • to make students familiar with feminist and queer theories and critiques of liberalism and liberal legal systems to the extent that they incorporate biases relating to gender and sexual orientation; • to show them how seemingly neutral legal norms are shaped by particular conceptualizations of gender, sexuality and sexual orientation; • to introduce them to the debate concerning the partnership of feminism and multiculturalism and prompt them to reflect on what constitutes gender (in)equality in a culturally diverse world; • to make them familiar with the ways in which the law has contended with sexual difference, sexual orientation, gender-based stereotypes and the meaning of sexuality in European, transnational and international contexts.
