Download or read book Sexuality, Morals and Justice written by Nicholas Bamforth and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1997-10-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against the background of the law reform debates around sexuality in Britain and America, Bamforth examines what functions it is legitimate for the law to serve and how effective law can be in achieving social goals. He provides a new and cogent argument for protecting lesbian and gay rights through law, but is sceptical about how useful law can be in eradicating discriminatory social practices. This work sheds new light on the equal rights debate and raises issues of central importance to the role of law in society.
