The New Legal Realism: Volume 1 : Translating Law-and-Society for Today's Legal Practice Hardback
Edited by Elizabeth Mertz, Stewart (University of Wisconsin, Madison) Macaulay, Thomas W. (University of Wisconsin, Madison) Mitchell
Hardback
Description
This is the first of two volumes announcing the emergence of the new legal realism as a field of study.
At a time when the legal academy is turning to social science for new approaches, these volumes chart a new course for interdisciplinary research by synthesizing law on the ground, empirical research, and theory.
Volume 1 lays the groundwork for this novel and comprehensive approach with an innovative mix of theoretical, historical, pedagogical, and empirical perspectives.
Their empirical work covers such wide-ranging topics as the financial crisis, intellectual property battles, the legal disenfranchisement of African-American landowners, and gender and racial prejudice on law school faculties.
The methodological blueprint offered here will be essential for anyone interested in the future of law-and-society.
