Hardback. The image of "backlash" is pervasive in contemporary debates about the impact of second-wave feminism on law and policy, but systematic research on the subject is lacking. This book addresses that gap and analyzes late 20th-century responses to feminism, and asks: to what extent does the concept of backlash explain reactions to feminism over time? Editor(s): Chunn, Dorothy E.; Boyd, Susan B.; Lessard, Hester. Series: Law and Society. Num Pages: 320 pages, 3 tables. BIC Classification: JFFK; LAQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 5969 x 4039. Weight in Grams: 590.
