This panel presentation will take on a variety of subjects
and examine their feminist implications. The panel will discuss papers
involving business law, civil procedure, employment law, federal courts, and
health law. The goal of the program is to de-compartmentalize feminism from
other strains of legal scholarship and inquiry by engaging scholars with
interests independent of feminism and those with an interest primarily in
feminism. What the panelists hope to ultimately achieve is a mainstreaming of
feminism. Stated differently, the goal is to begin normalizing the
consideration of intersectionality—including, but not limited to,
feminism—within traditional legal scholarship to create a scholarly environment
where this kind of inquiry is the norm and not just the panel regarding
“other.”
