Abstract

The article discusses the challenges and opportunities in teaching feminist legal theory to law students, particularly those who may be entering formal education later in life. It highlights the importance of engaging students through innovative teaching methods and fostering critical thinking skills. The author reflects on their own teaching strategies, including the use of Socratic methods and the integration of feminist sensibilities, while acknowledging the risks and criticisms associated with these approaches. The central argument emphasizes the need for a restorative and redistributive vision of justice in legal education.
