Haas Professor of Law and Philosophy emerita at the Georgetown University Law Center. West's research is primarily concerned with feminist legal theory, constitutional law and theory, philosophy of law, and the law and literature movement.
West holds a B.A. and a J.D. (1979) from the University of Maryland and a masters in judicial studies from Stanford. West came to Georgetown after teaching at the University of Maryland Law School from 1986 to 1991, and at the Cleveland-Marshall College of Law from 1982 to 1985.
West is best known for her work in the ethics of care and feminist legal theory. In her article "Jurisprudence and Gender," West argued that women’s socialisation prioritises connection and relationships over autonomy, making it difficult for them to respond to violence with violence, which ultimately hinders their ability to prove lack of consent in legal contexts designed by and for men.[1]
