Economic & Political WeeklySummary: This year’s Review of Women’s Studies (RWS) offers a survey of women’s varied experiences with the law, important trajectories of advocacy, and the lingering incompleteness of transformations in law. The collection of papers offers feminist reflections on the interface between law, state, and society, highlighting how the law constitutes a dynamic site of struggle. The RWS moves between a wide range of mediations in the endeavour to shed more light on the triangulated relationship between law, movements, and social location. These mediations include the interventions of feminist legal practitioners; feminist networking of women’s organisations and social movements; the questioning of homogenising law by minority groups; and attempts of the higher judiciary at combatting gender stereotypes in the legal discourse.- Reproduced
