Both ‘women in law’ and ‘women and law’ have assumed great significance over the last century. Women have not only struggled to be admitted to the legal profession and to be accepted as members of the jurisprudential community, but they have also sought to change the myriad laws relegating women to subordinate status within the broader society. Substantive equality for women nevertheless remains elusive.

仍需要开拓性女性

这两个“女性在法”和“妇女与法律”假设在上个世纪具有重大意义。妇女不仅努力争取进入法律职业并被接受为法学界的一员，而且还试图改变无数法律，使妇女在更广泛的社会中处于从属地位。但是，妇女的实质性平等仍然遥不可及。
