"Women & the law : innovative approaches to teaching research and analysis explores the strategies and methods that break the mould of traditional legal teaching and research by engaging women's experiences with the law in various legal disciplines. Some of these are traditional legal fields such as jurisprudence, criminal, family, labour and commercial law while others are specialist areas that need to be engaged with the law. These include issues of social justice, human rights, gender and sexuality, masculinities and access to resources. The contributors to this volume draw on their practical examples from teaching courses on a postgraduate Masters in Women's Law at the Southern and Eastern African Regional Centre for Women's Law based at the University of Zimbabwe ... The book addresses two major aspects of this specialist masters programme in women's law: namely what has been taught and how it has been taught"--Back cover.
