Description

This book examines the legal developments and proposals concerning sexual discrimination and sexual harassment in federal law.

Gender-based discrimination, sexual harassment, and violence against women in the workplace, schools, and society at large are continuing topics of legislative and judicial concern.

Legal doctrines condemning the extortion of sexual favours as a condition of employment of job advancement and other sexually offensive workplace behaviours resulting in a "hostile environment" have evolved from judicial decisions under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and other federal equal employment opportunity laws.

In recent years, the U.S. Supreme Court has addressed a range of sexual harassment issues, from the legality of same-sex harassment to the vicarious liability of employers and local school districts for monetary damages as a result of harassment by supervisors and teachers.

These and other significant Supreme Court cases regarding sexual harassment and violence against women are also discussed.
