Recenzii
At a time in our lives when a true understanding of the intersection of law and society really matters, this text offers a thoughtful explanation of just that. Both law and society are complex perspectives and the authors provide an organized, clear, and concise understanding of these complexities. This text is used in a graduate level course on the topic and students respond well to the balanced writing encouraging meaningful debate and discussion.
Susan V. Koski,LP.D., Associate Professor, Department of Criminology & Criminal Justice, Central Connecticut State University
I highly recommend Vago and Barkan’s new book as it provides a solid foundation for understanding the reciprocal nature of law and society. As a practicing attorney for four decades and a professor teaching Law and Society at the upper undergraduate level, I can affirm that Vago and Barkan’s book is the gold standard of Law and Society textbooks.
