The legal discourse was conceived as being different for men and women: women were treated as a specific social category, were judicially discriminated against and were given inferior legal personality. Following the moral discourse of the time, jurists classified women as honest and dishonest, and tried to establish a physical and legal barrier to divide the good from the bad. As a result, women were before the law, pawns for male decisions. However, women did not easily comply with the submissive role attributed to them and, as civil lawsuits show, often they used the law that discriminated them in their own benefit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Isabel Perez Molina\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1581121296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781581121292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dissertation.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.46h x 5.62w x 0.65d","brand":"Isabel Perez Molina","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47001636405503,"sku":"9781581121292","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7003a48f-4fb0-49d5-b527-caacd8e3d4c4.jpg?v=1751601673","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/honour-and-disgrace-isabel-perez-molina-9781581121292","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
