Cultural Legal Studies: Law's Popular Cultures And The Metamorphosis Of Law

What can popular cultures offer law, as a basis for critical practice? This introduction to the 'cultural legal studies' presents a new encounter with the 'cultural turn' in law and legal theory. The collection brings together leading scholars from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States to present a long-overdue identification and framing of its scope, methodologies and practice. Drawing on three different modes of cultural legal studies - storytelling, technology and jurisprudence - the collection showcases the intersectional practices of cultural legal studies and law in its popular cultural mode.
