Challenges modernity on its own terms, using the work of Lacan, Kristeva and Freud, and texts as diverse as Rousseau's "Confessions" and James's "What Maisie Knew". The author confronts the failure of modernity to bring about the social equality promised by the Enlightenment.
This collection of original essays looks at a topic of growing interest and debate in feminist and historical circles: the social regulation of women through law during the 19th and 20th centuries, and the resistance which emerged in response. The collection refutes the notion of women oppressed during the 19th century, unable to act in opposition to the law. When issues of motherhood and women''s sexuality became areas of public policy, women began to negotiate the law, as case studies from Europe and the USA show. This book should be of interest to students of women''s studies, sociology of law, and social policy.
