内容説明

Despite the explosion of innovative thinking in contemporary critical theory, legal studies remains mired in obsolete forms of pnilosophical understanding. Because law is seen as a function of enlightened reason or a universal mind, it is generally assumed that the methods of legal reasoning are unquestionable. This ignores the fact that the law must first have a hold over bodies in order to function at all. How is the body of the law - legal codes, statutes and common law - dependent onthe lawfulness of bodies? In this innovative collection of essays, leading scholars from the disciplines of philosophy, women's studies, critical theory and legal theory attempt to examine the relations between the subjected body that is law's condition of possibility and the determinate corpus of positive law.
