Mapping Gender: Shedding Empirical Light on Family Courts’ Treatment of Cases Involving Abuse and Alienation. Meier, J. S. & Dickson, S. Law & Inequality: A Journal of Theory and Practice, 35:311–334, USA. ![Mapping Gender: Shedding Empirical Light on Family Courts’ Treatment of Cases Involving Abuse and Alienation [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper abstract bibtex Catharine A. MacKinnon identified the subtle and implicit ways that gendered assumptions drive law and culture. Her insight is profoundly applicable to today’s state family courts where men’s violence in the family is often rendered invisible by family court practices. This Article provides a brief literature survey, focusing on the theory of “parental alienation” which operates as a primary vehicle for making abuse invisible in custody litigation. This Article reports on the co-authors’ pilot study, which begins empirically mapping family courts’ uses of this theory. These pilot results provide preliminary empirical support for the critiques from the field.
