Acerca deste libro electrónico
“A cornucopia of knowledge and insight on the biggest questions in the sociolegal tradition . . . an invaluable resource for researchers and teachers.” —Michael McCann, Gordon Hirabayashi Professor for the Advancement of Citizenship, University of Washington
Law and society scholars challenge the common belief that law is simply a neutral tool by which society sets standards and resolves disputes. Decades of research shows how much the nature of communities, organizations, and the people inhabiting them affect how law works. Just as much, law shapes beliefs, behaviors, and wider social structures, but the connections are much more nuanced—and surprising—than many expect.
Law and Society Reader II provides an accessible overview to the breadth of recent developments in this research tradition, bringing to life this dynamic field. In this second volume, editors Erik W. Larson and Patrick D. Schmidt have compiled excerpts of 43 illuminating articles published since 1993 in The Law & Society Review, the flagship journal of the Law and Society Association.
By its organization and approach, this volume enables readers to join in discussing the key ideas of law and society research. The selections highlight the core insights and developments in this research tradition, making these works indispensable for those exploring the field and ideal for classroom use. Across six concisely introduced sections, it analyzes inequality, lawyering, the relation between law and organizations, and the place of law in relation to other social institutions.
