This project aims to expose the history of cultural and legal processes that for most of the twentieth century denied enfranchised Australian women the equal right to sit on juries. The project expects to provide new legal and historical understandings of structural gender and racial inequalities that persist today. The project will advance national and international knowledge by reconstructing the gender dynamics of historical court processes and documenting women’s struggles to overcome their exclusion. It will recover a previously unexamined aspect of legal history, and provide an important corrective to current understandings of the representativeness of Australian juries.

该项目旨在揭露文化和法律的进程的历史，这些进程在二十世纪的大部分时间里剥夺了被赋予公民权的澳大利亚妇女担任陪审员的平等权利。该项目预计将提供新的法律的和历史的结构性性别和种族不平等的理解，今天仍然存在。该项目将通过重建历史上法院程序的性别动态和记录妇女为克服被排斥而进行的斗争，增进国家和国际知识。它将恢复法律的历史的一个以前未经审查的方面，并提供一个重要的纠正目前的理解澳大利亚陪审团的代表性。
