This book explores the idea of collective consciousness and how it is applied to the pursuit of gender justice in international law. It discusses how the collective mode of behaviour and identity often leads to unconscious role-playing based on the social norms, expectations or archetypes of the group. For example, throughout history men have been constructed as dominators and women have been constructed as victims. In casting women as archetypal victims, we have downplayed their pre-existing, innate capacities for strength, leadership and power. In casting men as archetypal dominators, we have downplayed their pre-existing, innate capacities for nurturing, care and empathy. This unconscious role-playing has had wide spread implications, with gender justice framed as 'feminism' and 'women's rights.' Why weren't men burning their ties when women were burning their bras? What about empowering the private sphere and inviting men in? In this book Alexandra Walker demonstrates how all individuals have both masculine and feminine traits and calls on international law to reflect this gender continuum.
