本书包含 11 篇具有不同学科渊源的论文,发表于 1977 年至 1994 年间发表在各种期刊和书籍上。这部作品的知识面貌是由斯玛特的职业和政治形象塑造的。她作为一名女权主义社会学家写作,其当前的理论关注点是后现代女权主义的影响。该书是对文学的重要贡献。它通俗易懂,写得很好,涵盖了大量的基础知识,并以易于理解的语言处理了困难的理论问题。它令人钦佩地向学生读者发表了演讲,但对于所有参与一般女权主义理论、特别是妇女与法律辩论的女权主义者来说,它肯定会被证明是有价值的。斯玛特特别关注原材料的组织和呈现方式,以及工作目标和理论关注点的提出、定义和促进方式。本书正式分为三个部分,分别涉及:犯罪学学科;性与法律;女权主义理论和法律。每个内容之前都有一个简短的介绍性说明,具有双重功能。一方面,它解释了过去的误判或该部分不同文章中发现的任何观点变化。另一方面,它追踪了共同的主题,这些主题将它们彼此联系起来,并与作者更广泛的政治和理论议程联系起来。专家添加的一般介绍和后记提供了本书的整体统一性,它们共同构成了重新阅读文章的框架,
This volume contains eleven essays with diverse disciplinary origins published in various journals and books between 1977-1994. The intellectual profile of the work is shaped by Smart's vocational and political persona. She writes as a feminist sociologist whose current theoretical concerns are informed by postmodern feminism. The book is an important contribution to the literature. It is accessible, well-written, covers a considerable amount of ground and deals with difficult theoretical questions in easily understandable language. It admirably addresses its student audience, but will surely prove valuable to all feminists engaged in debates about feminist theory in general and women and law in particular. Smart has paid special care to the way in which the raw material has been organized and presented and to the manner in which the objectives and theoretical concerns of the work are posited, defined and promoted. The book is formally divided into three sections dealing with respectively: the discipline of criminology; sexuality and the law; feminist theory and the law. Each is preceded by a short introductory note which has a double function. On the one hand it accounts for past misjudgments or any changes of view found in the different pieces within that section. On the other hand it traces common themes which link them to one another and to the author's wider political and theoretical agenda. The overall unity of the work is provided by the expert addition of a general introduction and a postscript which together form the framework within which the essays are to be read afresh and
