She has published on such topics as feminist litigation, constitutional equality, pornography, gay and lesbian rights and sexual assault law. Her books are<i> Bad Attitude\/s on Trial<\/i>:<i> Feminism, Pornography and the Butler Decision<\/i> (1997) and <i>Open Boundaries: A Canadian Women&rsquo;s Studies Reader<\/i> (2009). For the past several years, her research has focused on the implications of innovative Canadian sexual assault reforms. She has published several widely cited articles analyzing Canada\u2019s affirmative consent standard. In addition, Lise\u2019s work has interrogated the interpretation of Criminal Code provisions restricting defense access to complainant sexual history and confidential records. Most recently, she has critically analyzed men\u2019s rights activism on sexual violence and has assessed Canadian feminist law reform campaigns in light of the critique of so-called carceral feminism.
