Abstract

This important collection explores contemporary legal thought (and thought about the law more generally) in relation to its interdisciplinary critical engagement with philosophy, in particular continental philosophy. Over the last 25 years, many legal thinkers have increasingly and critically engaged with philosophical thought in ever explorative and innovative interdisciplinary ways. This book represents this rich and continuously developing interdisciplinary tradition within legal thought and legal study more generally.

Featuring both established and new voices, the volume explores a range of topics including: the relationship between law, philosophy and political theology; law and ecology; matter and legal technologies; contemporary governmentality; law’s relationship to violence; the so-called anti-juradicalism of post-1968 French theory; the normativity of social images; and responses to a time of perpetual crisis management. The approaches represented in this volume pose both long-standing and new questions in a genuinely critical manner in relation to contemporary legal (and associated political, social, economic and ethical) thinking.
