The adoption of a feminist legal theory is the choice of many scholars. Though feminist legal theories frequently promote change to existing legal norms, they do so not only for the sake of change, but also in order to mediate legal, political, social, and economic barriers to women's advancement. However, not all legal scholars who adopt a feminist legal perspective are acknowledged for doing so, nor have they always characterized their own work this way. This panel features authors whose scholarly work falls into the category of unacknowledged or more muted feminist legal theoretical outings.
