Women are one of the community groups most affected by Covid-19 because most are workers with lower incomes and unprotected financial security. Moreover, most women occupy the informal sector, which is more vulnerable in accessing social security guarantees. In addition, domestic violence against women increases in several countries during the pandemic. This article aims to analyze the causes of the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on Women and formulate the legal solution using the Feminist Legal Theory approach. The results show that there are broadly two causes of negative impacts for women dealing with Pandemic Covid-19. Firstly, due to the inequality in economic structure. Secondly is the gender stigmatized social structure. In this case, the feminist legal theory approach can be used to reconstruct and reform the negative impacts, as well as reanalysis the solutions in realizing women's legal justice due to the outbreak of the covid-19 pandemic. This study offers three solution methods. Firstly, analyzing the legal methods in giving gender implications and perpetuating women's subordination. Secondly, making gender the main category in conducting legal analysis. Thirdly, considering gender specificity in achieving legal equality for women.

This chapter surveys the field of feminist legal theory (FLT) as a discipline in conversation, and in some ways allied, with children’s rights. After briefly reviewing the development of feminist legal theory, the chapter explores relevant debates among feminists and then discusses several feminist legal critiques and methods of relevance to children’s rights. The chapter ends by considering ways in which feminist legal theory and children’s rights are in conversation and by exploring the potential for newer variants of feminist legal theory to suggest new directions in children’s rights strategies.

Resumen: Nuestra propuesta se inscribe en el campo de los feminismos jurídicos, área que surge en la década del setenta en la academia estadounidense bajo la denominación Feminist Jurisprudence, Feminist Legal Studies o Feminist Legal Theory. En América Latina y El Caribe este área es aún incipiente; encontramos en dicha región una gran cantidad de investigaciones no necesariamente situadas en términos del pensamiento jurídico/legal feminista, pero sí conectadas íntimamente con dicho campo y como parte de las denominadas perspectivas de género en el derecho. En el presente artículo desarrollamos algunas notas para abonar a la reflexión acerca de los feminismos jurídicos en la Argentina con proyección latinoamericana, fundamentalmente a partir de la década de 1990.

This essay explores how early approaches in feminist aesthetics drew on concepts honed in the field of feminist legal theory, especially conceptions of oppression and equality. I argue that by importing these feminist legal concepts, many early feminist accounts of how art is political depended largely on a distinctly liberal version of politics. I offer a critique of liberal feminist aesthetics, indicating ways recent work in the field also turns toward critical feminist aesthetics as an alternative.

Pengakuan bahwa ketidaksetaraan mungkin menjadi pendorong kerentanan seseorang atau sekelompok orang atas HIV/AIDS, misalnya ketidaksetaraan gender dalam bidang pendidikan dan pembatasan otonomi sosial di kalangan perempuan secara langsung terkait dengan akses yang lebih rendah ke layanan kesehatan seksual, termasuk tes dan pengobatan HIV. Ketidaksetaraan tersebut menimbulkan serangkaian tanggapan Feminist Legal Theory di sebuah upaya untuk mengatasi HIV. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk untuk menganalisis mengenai kebijakan penanggulangan HIV/AIDS yang berkeadilan dalam telaah Feminist Legal theory. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif dengan jenis penelitian doktrinal/normatif serta pendekatan filosofi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa etika feminis mungkin sangat relevan dengan etika kesehatan masyarakat. Berangkat dari cara pandang feminist legal theory, maka pembuatan kebijakan penenanggulangan HIV/AIDS harus dilakukan berbasis pada people with HIV-centered social policies, yang menekankan bahwa dalam proses pembuatan suatu kebijakan haruslah berorientasi pada kesejahteraan ODHA.
