The conventional wisdom is that the rules, concepts, and structures of tort law are neutral and unbiased, free of considerations of gender and race.In The Measure of Injury, Martha Chamallas and Jennifer Wriggins prove that tort law is anything but gender and race neutral. Drawing on an in-depth analysis of case law ranging from the Jim Crow South to the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund, the authors demonstrate that women and minorities have been under-compensated in tort law and that traditional biases have resurfaced in updated forms to perpetuate patterns of disparate recovery based on race and gender. Grappling with tort theory, the intricacies of legal doctrine and the practical effects of legal rules, The Measure of Injury is a unique treatise on torts that uncovers the public and cultural dimensions of this always-controversial domain of private law.Personal injuriesUnited StatesTortsUnited StatesRace discriminationLaw and legislationUnited StatesSex discriminationLaw and legislationUnited States911.Chamallas.Compensation.Crow.Drawing.Fund.Injury.Jennifer.Martha.Measure.South.Victim.Wriggins.analysis.anything.authors.based.been.biases.case.demonstrate.disparate.forms.from.gender.have.in-depth.minorities.neutral.patterns.perpetuate.prove.race.ranging.recovery.resurfaced.that.tort.traditional.under-compensated.updated.women.Personal injuriesTortsRace discriminationLaw and legislationSex discriminationLaw and legislation346.7303Chamallas Martha1581247Wriggins Jennifer B1581248MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791357603321The measure of injury3862666UNINA04575nam 22008174a 450 991095766640332120200520144314.0978661225459897812822545961282254596978058546371105854637199789027297693902729769X(CKB)1000000000003230(SSID)ssj0000161106(PQKBManifestationID)12072719(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000161106(PQKBWorkID)10191040(PQKB)10634486(SSID)ssj0000279801(PQKBManifestationID)12112916(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000279801(PQKBWorkID)10268153(PQKB)23669190(MiAaPQ)EBC622601(Au-PeEL)EBL622601(CaPaEBR)ebr10022338(CaONFJC)MIL225459(OCoLC)732804667(PPN)198740565(DE-B1597)720282(DE-B1597)9789027297693(EXLCZ)99100000000000323020020411d2002 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrGender identity and discourse analysis /edited by Lia Litosseliti, Jane Sunderland1st ed.Philadelphia, PA John Benjamins Pub.2002vii,335 pDiscourse approaches to politics, society, and culture ;v. 2Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph9789027226921 902722692X 9781588112132 1588112136 Includes bibliographical references and index.Gender Identity and Discourse Analysis -- Editorial page -- Title page -- LCC data -- Table of contents -- Chapter 1: Gender identity and discourse analysis -- Theorising Gender and Discourse -- Chapter 2: Yes, but is it gender? -- Chapter 3: Rethinking politeness, impoliteness and gender identity -- Chapter 4: Stunning, shimmering, iridescent -- Discourse and Gendered Identities in the Media -- Chapter 5: Consuming personal relationships -- Chapter 6 'Head to head' -- Chapter 7: Is there anything "new" about these lads? -- Discourse, Sexuality and Gender Identities -- Chapter 8: The case of the indefinite pronoun -- Chapter 9: Erotic discourse strategies in powerless women -- Discourse and Gender Identities in Education -- Chapter 10: From representation towards discursive practices -- Chapter 11: 'What's the hottest part of the Sun?

Gender Identity and Discourse Analysis therefore focuses on a principled diversity of key sites within four broad areas: the media, sexuality, education and parenthood. The different chapters together illustrate how taking a discourse perspective facilitates understanding of the complex and subtle ways in which gender is represented, constructed and contested through language. The book engages critically with long-running and on-going debates, but also reflects and develops current understandings of gender, identity and discourse, particularly the shift from 'gender differences' to the discoursal shaping of gender. Gender Identity and Discourse Analysis thus offers not only insights and methodologies of new empirical studies but also careful theorisations, in particular of discourse, text, identity and gender. The collection is a valuable resource for researchers, postgraduates and advanced undergraduates working in the area of gender and discourse.Discourse approaches to politics, society, and culture ;v. 2.Sex roleGender identityDiscourse analysisSex role.Gender identity.Discourse analysis.305.3ES 360rvkLitosseliti Lia773219Sunderland Jane624243MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957666403321Gender identity and discourse analysis4344138UNINA
