Abstracts

EN

The paper strives to introduce core concepts of feminism and the style of feminist thinking, perceiving and being in the world using academic literature, domestic knowledge, experience, and pop culture references. It then discusses the feminist critique of the law to show how feminist methodology/methodologies with the (quest for) vigilance, solidarity, recognition of positionality and anti-essentialism provide new perspectives, prospective Copernican turns, on the legal institutions, legal academia and the law per se. One of the prime examples nowadays topical in the Slovak Republic is the proposed redefinition of rape from violence based to consent-based. Thirdly, the paper sketches the various streams of feminist jurisprudence and how they interact.
