In this context, the courtroom does not only appear as a site of legal assessment, but primarily as a space in which a political or ideological image of women is always implicitly negotiated and constructed. What else, beyond the juridical paragraphs, is debated here? And how can we render this hidden discourse visible?
“The face of war is unwomanly” stated journalist Svetlana Alexievich in her a seminal book of the same title1, and the same seems to apply to the juridical history of female delinquency, women’s lawbreaking, and “unlawful” resistance. As sociologist Carol Smart has argued since the late 1970s, there is striking lack when it comes to assessing a female criminology, and even more so if we dare to think of it as a feminist criminology. To fathom the latter is one of the aims of this project.
