The Sociology of Law
Author: A. Javier Trevino
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351473700
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 1182
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to introduce the sociology of law by providing a coherent organization to the general body of literature in that field. As such, the text gives a comprehensive overview of theoretical sociology of law. It deals with the broad expanse of the field and covers a vast amount of intellectual terrain. This volume is intended to fill a gap in the literature. Most textbooks in the sociology of law are insufficiently theoretical or else do not provide a paradigmatic analysis of sociological theories. The content of this text consists of discussions of the works of scholars who have contributed the most to the cumulative development of the sociology of law. It surveys the major traditions of legal sociology but is not wedded to any one particular theoretical approach. Both the "classical," or nineteenth-century, and "contemporary," or twentieth-century, perspectives are covered. The reader will see that nineteenth-century thought has directly influenced the emergence of twentieth-century theory. One unique feature of this book is that key sociological and legal concepts, presented in bold print and italics, are defined, described, and illustrated throughout. Although the nature of the subject matter is highly theoretical and, at times, quite complex, Trevino values every effort to present the material in the most straightforward and intelligible form possible without compromising the integrity of the theories themselves. In short, this book aims to accomplish three objectives: inform about the progressive advancement of sociological theory, teach the reader to analyze the law as a social phenomenon, and develop in the reader a critical mode of thinking about issues relevant to the relationship between law and society.

Conflict of Laws: Cases and Materials
Author: R. Lea Brilmayer
Publisher: Aspen Publishing
ISBN: 1543815073
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 1173
Book Description
Written by leading Conflict of Laws scholars, Conflict of Laws: Cases and Materials, Eighth Edition, presents a balanced study of Conflict of Laws, otherwise known as Private International Law. The book begins with a discussion of traditional approaches to choice-of-law problems, both inter-state and international, followed by an examination of how modern courts and commentators have struggled to formulate new and better approaches. The remaining broad topics—constitutional limitations on choice of law, personal jurisdiction, conflicts in the federal system, recognition and enforcement of judgments, extraterritorial application of federal law, choice of legal regimes, and choice of law in complex litigation—are considered in light of the wisdom derived from consideration of the basic choice-of-law problems. New to the Eighth Edition: Addition of new co-author Carlos M. Vázquez, a leading scholar in Conflict of Laws as well as the adjacent fields of International Law and Foreign Relations Law Expanded coverage of Conflict of Laws in the international context, with a focus on the increasingly important topic of extraterritorial application of federal law New Supreme Court decisions on personal jurisdiction and constitutional limits on choice of law Expanded coverage of choice of law in marriage and divorce Discussion of draft Third Restatement of Conflict of Laws Professors and students will benefit from: A balance of historical and recent cases, with problems that test application of case precedents A balance between theoretical and practical aspects of Conflict of Laws, with coverage of state law and comparative perspectives where appropriate Focus on Choice of Law Broader coverage of extraterritorial application of federal law than any leading Conflict of Laws casebook Modern applications to internet disputes, complex litigation, party autonomy, and jurisdictional competition, among other cutting-edge topics

Legal Spaces
Author: Sabine Müller-Mall
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642367305
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
This book is concerned with a central question in contemporary legal theory: how to describe global law? In addressing this question, the book brings together two features that are different and yet connected to one another: the conceptual description of contemporary law on the one hand, and methods of taking concrete perspectives on law on the other hand. The book provides a useful concept for describing global law: thinking of law spatially. It illustrates that space is a concept with the capacity to capture the relationality, dynamics, and hybridity of law. Moreover, this book investigates the role of topological thinking in finding concrete perspectives on law. Legal Spaces offers an innovative and interdisciplinary approach to law.
