Opis

Drawing on Cavarero’s work, this book focuses on the potentiality of the voice for resisting law’s sovereign structures. For Cavarero, it is the voice that expresses one’s living and unrepeatable singularity. It leads to possibilities of resistance that bring a fresh approach to legal theoretical concerns with singularity, ethics and justice.
