Title: SELVES, PERSONS, INDIVIDUALS: PHILOSOPHICAL PERSPECTIVES ON WOMEN AND LEGAL OBLIGATIONS
Description: "Whilst feminist philosophy has frequently engaged with political theory, this book considers instead legal theory and the practical operation of law. The work considers some of the contested meanings of what it is to be a self, a person or an individual in relation to the law of obligations. The discussion still impacts upon political theory as it concerns the way in which the question of what it is to be a woman has been defined within recent feminist theory. In order to overcome what appears to be a block in feminist legal theory, the book draws together areas of philosophy which are not normally considered within feminist or legal theory."--BOOK JACKET.
