Consciousness and Ideology: The International Library of Essays in Law and Society

Editat de Patricia Ewick
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 noi 2006
In this volume of essays by leading socio-legal scholars, the dual concepts of consciousness and ideology are examined and used to expose law’s presence and power in social life. Rejecting the association between ideology and concealment, each essay explores the ways in which ideology and consciousness artfully produce truth, creating both power and the grounds of its resistance. The rich empirical studies included in this volume are crucial to our understanding of law, consciousness and ideology.
