Informations
Descriptif
In an era of technology, health crisis and transnational thinking, this course covers cutting edge issues, such as gender discrimination through algorithms, sexual harassment after #metoo, reproductive rights and strategic litigation and how feminist legal theory questions the way the law is constructed and applied according to stereotypical views of identity and systemic discrimination. The seminar investigates how queer theory influences the legal field by rejecting a binary view of identity and encompassing issues challenging LGBTQI groups. What do we learn from these different legal standpoints as we encounter changes in family, criminal and employment law? Does queer theory influence gender law? Are there new ways to consider legal concepts such as consent, personal autonomy, and intersectionality? What real novelty in the concept of inclusion?
