The Law and Politics Book Review
The International Library of Essays in Law and Society
explores the development of the modern law and society movement.
Volumes in this series collect the most significant journal
articles in key areas of law and society. Scholars who are
recognized for their expertise and contribution to the literature
in the various research areas serve as volume editors and write an
introductory essay to each volume, providing the context and
rationale for the collection. Volumes in the series reflect five
broad areas of the field of law and society including the cultural
life of law; institutions and actors; domains of public policy; how
the law matters to society; and the globalization of law and
society.
