Book Description
This book is based on a critical feminist reading of selected Delhi High Court judgements pronounced in the 1990s. It focuses on the phenomenon of female criminality and the pervasiveness of the disciplinary powers of law in our lives. Through an overview of existing studies on female crime in India and the interaction with the working) of the law and the legal system, This engagement pushes our understanding of law from an instrument of control and mode of social transformation to mere rhetoric. Not to argue for the futility of engaging with the law but emphasising the need to look at it closely and critically.
