The Genocide Convention is “ Our Cause”
In 1948, the United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide was official recognized under international law. Few, however, understand the role of international women’s rights organizations in the politics of the convention, the ratification process, and its application in the immediate postwar era. Rooted in their knowledge of Nazi atrocities and wartime activism, women’s organizations supported Raphael Lemkin…
Political Engagement by ‘apolitical’ Female European Lawyers
In 1929, the International Federation of Women Judges and Lawyers became an affiliated organization eligible to lobby delegates at the League of Nations. This transnational legal sorority was dedicated to universal legal reform to address the fundamental problem of sex inequality under the law. The female jurists were part of an interwoven transnational movement seeking to establish a feminist jurisprudence based on equity. Despite global vicissi…
Of “Masculine Tyranny” and the “Women's Jury”
In belle époque France, criminal juries were criticized as too tolerant of crime and too lenient to effectively punish criminals. While the French institution of the jury was under attack by magistrates and other elites, mixed sex juries provided an alternative model.

Activists challenged the exclusion of women from universities and the field of law by testing meritocratic and democratic principles or holding to account constitutional commitments to equality. The lawyers’ movement they …

Women in France were admitted to the legal profession by law in 1900, but they were prohibited from ascending to the judiciary until 1946. Once they entered the profession, feminist lawyers demanded "the right to judge" and challenged gender discrimination in employment. They found allies among juvenile justice reformers who advocated the utility of placing women on the bench of the new youth courts created by the law of July 22, 1912. This artic…
Semantic similarity between sentences
The present study investigated the effects of deep, lexical, and surface structure relationships between sentences on judgments of these sentences' semantic similarity. Ten sentence conditions, four paraphrases and six nonparaphrases, were derived from a base sentence. The four paraphrase types weretransformational (T), a passive form of the base,lexical (L), containing synonyms for base content words,formalexic (F), a combination ofT andL types,…
