There are no pre-requisites for this module to be added

This module will begin with an introductory/ground rules session in which we clarify the approach to the module and assessment. We will then look at key theoretical ideas, eg heteronormativity and its relationship to law, and use this as a perspective from which to critique the law’s approach to various sexualities and genders (cis and trans). The end of the module will consider issues of ‘conscience’, and may include topics such as religion, gender and sexuality; abortion, etc.
