Description:
On the occasion of 15th August, 2021, the Centre for Constitutional Law, DNLU is delighted to organize a panel discussion on 'Feminist Constitutionalism'. ABOUT THE DISCUSSION Feminist Constitutionalism is about rethinking constitutional law in a manner that addresses and reflects feminist thought and experience. This term is used in contrast with the constitutional law and approach – constitutional law and gender or constitutional law and feminist theory, because it is aspired by scholars to explore the relationship between constitutional law and feminism by examining, challenging, and redefining the very idea of constitutionalism from a feminist perspective. Constitutional law is foundational to most of the worldʹs legal systems. It shapes fundamental assumptions regarding citizenship, rights, and responsibilities. Feminists who critique law must understand that legal systems cannot really be transformed without addressing their constitutional foundations. Feminist constitutionalism demands that scholars should not only revisit classical topics from new perspectives but, more importantly, pose new questions, introduce new topics, and take responsibility for changing the focus of constitutional discussion and debate. The Panel Constitutes: Prof. Vibhuti patel, former professor at Tata Institute of social science & SNDT women's university, Mumbai and Prof. (Dr.) P. Ishwara Bhat, vice-chancellor at Karnataka State Law University, Hubbali.
