Redressing Everyday Discrimination

The Weakness and Potential of Anti-Discrimination Law

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the harm that 'everyday' discrimination can cause and proposes ways in which it can be redressed. It draws on critical and feminist theory in order to forge a theoretical analysis of this harm created. Arguing that anti-discrimination law can and should be extended as a tool to offer protection , the book goes on to consider its limits - and its possibilities - for redressing this discriminatory practice.
