Autonomy Myth by Martha Albertson Fineman

Cornell Legal scholar argues agains pr-family legislation - indeed, against the very concept of the tradional family - and gives the lie to the idea that anyone in America is actually self-suffient. She insists that the sexually affiliated couple is no longer an appropriate building block for contemporary families and that society should be organised around 'caretaking relationships,2 particularly those involving children or elderly parents.'
Martha Albertson Fineman is Robert W. Woodruff Professor of Law at Emory University and Director and Founder of the Feminism and Legal Theory Project.
