Whatever Happened to the ERA? /$rMansbridge, Jane --$tAbout the Contributors --$tIndex 330 $aWomen and the U.S. Constitution is about much more than the nineteenth amendment. This provocative volume incorporates law, history, political theory, and philosophy to analyze the U.S. Constitution as a whole in relation to the rights and fate of women. Divided into three parts-History, Interpretation, and Practice-this book views the Constitution as a living document, struggling to free itself from the weight of a two-hundred-year-old past and capable of evolving to include women and their concerns. Feminism lacks both a constitutional theory as well as a clearly defined theory of political legitimacy within the framework of democracy. The scholars included here take significant and crucial steps toward these theories. In addition to constitutional issues such as federalism, gender discrimination, basic rights, privacy, and abortion, Women and the U.S. Constitution explores other issues of central concern to contemporary women-areas that, strictly speaking, are not yet considered a part of constitutional law. Women's traditional labor and its unique character, and women and the welfare state, are two examples of topics treated here from the perspective of their potentially transformative role in the future development of constitutional law. 606 $aWomen$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aWomen's rights$zUnited States 606 $aConstitutional history$zUnited States 606 $aEqual rights amendments$zUnited States 606 $aFeminist jurisprudence$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xHistory. 615 0$aWomen's rights 615 0$aConstitutional history 615 0$aEqual rights amendments 615 0$aFeminist jurisprudence 676 $a342.73/0878 701 $aSchwarzenbach$b Sibyl A$01048263 701 $aSmith$b Patricia$f1956-$0921458 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450669203321 996 $aWomen and the United States Constitution$92476466 997 $aUNINA
