Sexual Harassment and Violence Against Women: Developments in Federal Law
Description:
Gender-based discrimination, harassment, and violence against women in the
home, workplace, and society at large are continuing topics of legislative and judicial
concern. Legal doctrines condemning the extortion of sexual favors as a condition
of employment or job advancement, and other sexually offensive workplace behaviors
resulting in a "hostile environment," have evolved from judicial decisions under Title
VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and related federal laws.
