Cultural Legal Studies: Law's Popular Cultures and the Metamorphosis of Law
Editat de Cassandra Sharp, Marett Leiboffen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 ian 2018
The contributors to the collection deploy differentiated modes of cultural legal studies practice, adopting diverse philosophical, disciplinary, methodological and theoretical approaches and subjects of examination. The collection draws on this mix of diversity and homogeneity to thread together its overarching theme: that we must take seriously an interrogation of law as culture and in its cultural form. That is, it does not ask how a text ‘represents’ law; but rather how the representational nature of both law and culture intersect so that the ‘juridical’ become visible in various cultural manifestations. In short, it asks: how law’s popular cultures actively effect the metamorphosis of law.

Recenzii
"Contributors to Sharp and Leiboff’s collection examine how the techniques and practices of cultural legal studies can be used to metamorphose law and the legalities that underpin its popular imaginary. By drawing on three different modes of cultural legal studies—storytelling, technology, and jurisprudence—the collection seeks to showcase the intersectional practices of cultural legal studies, and law in its popular cultural mode."

Descriere
What can popular cultures offer law, as a basis for critical practice? This introduction to the ‘cultural legal studies’ presents a new encounter with the ‘cultural turn’ in law and legal theory. The collection brings together leading scholars from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States to present a long-overdue identification and framing of its scope, methodologies and practice. Drawing on three different modes of cultural legal studies – storytelling, technology and jurisprudence – the collection showcases the intersectional practices of cultural legal studies and law in its popular cultural mode.
