Review
'Someone has been thinking very hard lately. Read all about it in Modernism and the Grounds of Law.' Ronnie Lippens, University of Keele, Leiden Journal of International Law
Book Description
Approaches to the relation of law and society have for a long time seen law as either autonomous or self-grounded in society. This book is a radically new approach that sees law as both derived from and constitutive of its surrounding social and cultural context. Drawing on the work of major theorists, this book examines the nature of law as it has descended from the Enlightenment, through to colonialism and now globalization. It is a significant contribution to legal philosophy, jurisprudence and socio-legal studies.
