Abstract

The article "After Misogyny: How the Law Fails Women and What to Do About It" by Julie Suk, published in the American Journal of Comparative Law, discusses the gendered and legal structures of overentitlement and overempowerment that impact women. Suk's book focuses on how the law fails women and proposes solutions through historical and comparative analysis. The article highlights the book's examination of U.S. constitutional law, gender equality issues, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women, emphasizing the need for constitutional reform and a constitutionalism of care. Suk's work draws on comparative legal analysis to address gender inequalities and advocate for changes in law and institutions to achieve gender parity and address systemic injustices faced by women.
