Intersectionality in Action

Gayle Macdonald, Rachel Osborne, and Charles Smith (ed)

The contributions to this collection are written by legal advocates, community activists and legal scholars. While the Introduction and Commentary provide a theoretical overview, the ten essays examine theories of intersectionality to demonstrate how race, class, sexual orientation, gender and identity have been integrated into legal scholarship and activism in an attempt to shape legal policy and practice.

Subjects: Sociology/Cultural Studies, Politics, Race Studies

Table of Contents:
Section 1: Theory in Action; Section 2: Organizations in Action; Section 3: Law in Action; Notes, Bibliography

An important contribution to the ongoing development of this critical discourse.
