Spring 2004
Greetings from the Feminism and Legal Theory Project

FL T PROJECT SETTLES
INTO EMORY AND ATLANTA
The Feminism and Legal
Theory Project has been quite
active since its move south.
We've already hosted two
conferences at Emory: The
Subject of Disability' was held
in March of 2004; an Across
Legal Cultures Workshop in
conjunction with Keele
University on the subject of
Post-Colonialism occurred in
September of 2004.
Washington College of Law at
American University hosted a
20th Anniversary celebration
for the FLT Project and
sponsored a book party for my
latest book, The Autonomy
Myth: A Theory of
Dependency, in March 2004.
My new Assistant, Anthony
Petro, has brought some order

and initiative - including
launching this newsletter as a
way to inform you about
upcoming workshops and
other news. Spring semester is
shaping up to be busy and
productive!
FLT PROJECT ARCHIVES
Another new project deserves
mention: we are currently
collecting the materials from
the past 20 years of the FLT
Project and preserving them.
Conference papers, video-
recordings, and published
materials will be archived at
Emory's Robert W. Woodruff
Library, as well as put on
display at the Hugh F.
MacMillan Law Library. I hope
this archive will be a rich
resource for feminist legal
scholars in the future.
