Description

Regulating Womanhood presents a collection of original essays examining how law shaped women's lives during the 19th and 20th centuries, challenging the narrative of passive victimhood. This Routledge publication explores the social regulation of women through marriage, motherhood, and sexuality policies, whilst revealing how women actively resisted and negotiated these legal constraints. Drawing on case studies from Europe and the USA, the essays demonstrate that women were not merely subjects of oppression but agents of change who engaged with the legal system to protect their interests. Essential reading for students of women's studies, feminist history, and law, this book contributes to ongoing scholarly debates about gender, power, and resistance. The interdisciplinary approach connects historical analysis with contemporary discussions about women's autonomy, bodily rights, and the intersection of law and gender studies.
