ISBN: 9780817356781 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Imagining Legality: Where Law Meets Popular Culture is collection of essays on the relationship between law and popular culture that posits, in addition to the concepts of law in the books and law in action, a third concept of law in the image that is, of law as it is perceived by the public through the lens of public media. Imagining Legality argues that images of law suggested by television and film are as numerous as they are various, and that they give rise to a potent and pervasive imaginative life of the law. The media s projections of the legal system remind us not...

ISBN: 9781107629240 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It is widely recognized that times of national emergency put legality to its greatest test. In such times we rely on sovereign power to rescue us, to hold the danger at bay.

It puts today s responses to emergency in historical and institutional context, reminding readers of the continuities and discontinuities in the ways emergencies are framed and understood at different times and in different situations....

Looking Back at Law's Century: The Security Clearance Hearing
ISBN: 9780801439575 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book describes a century of tremendous legal change, of inspiring legal developments, and profound failures. The twentieth century took the United States from the Progressive Era's optimism about law and social engineering to current concerns about a hyperlegalistic society, from philosophical idealism to the implementation of democracy, the rule of law, and the idea of human rights throughout the world. At the same time, law maintained its status as the key language of governance in the United States, the most "legal" of all countries, which has succeeded in making its version of the...

Law as Punishment/Law as Regulation
ISBN: 9780804771702 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Law depends on various modes of classification. How an act or a person is classified may be crucial in determining the rights obtained, the procedures employed, and what understandings get attached to the act or person. Critiques of law often reveal how arbitrary its classificatory acts are, but no one doubts their power and consequence. This crucial new book considers the problem of law's physical control of persons and the ways in which this control illuminates competing visions of the law: as both a tool of regulation and an instrument of coercion or punishment. It examines various...

Law and Lies: Deception and Truth-Telling in the American Legal System
ISBN: 9781107108783 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Law has a strangely complicated relationship to deception. Though it sometimes takes a hard line on behalf of truth the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, competing values often cause law to look the other way. How and why is lying alternately accepted, condemned, or prosecuted? What are the government's interests in allowing or disallowing lying? Law and Lies is the first book to thematically address the role of lying in the American legal system. Undercover police agents are permitted to lie in the name of catching criminals, and government officials are permitted to lie in...

Dissent in Dangerous Times
ISBN: 9780472068647 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Dissent in Dangerous Times presents essays by six distinguished scholars, who provide their own unique views on the interplay of loyalty, patriotism, and dissent.
While dissent has played a central role in our national history and in the American cultural imagination, it is usually dangerous to those who practice it, and always unpalatable to its targets. War does not encourage the tolerance of opposition at home any more than it does on the front: if the War on Terror is to be a permanent war, then the consequences for American political freedoms cannot be overestimated....

Crossing Boundaries: Traditions and Transformations in Law and Society Research
ISBN: 9780810114388 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Perhaps no idea is more emblematic of the field of law and society than crossing boundaries. From the founding of the Law and Society Association in the early 1960s, participating scholars aspired to create a field that crossed boundaries in at least two senses: by undertaking research that questioned and often bridged traditional methodological and disciplinary divisions, and by using nontraditional approaches to explore the interconnections between law and its social context. These essays reflect both aspirations.

Imagining New Legalities: Privacy and Its Possibilities in the 21st Century
ISBN: 9780804777049 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Imagining New Legalities reminds us that examining the right to privacy and the public/private distinction is an important way of mapping the forms and limits of power that can legitimately be exercised by collective bodies over individuals and by governments over their citizens. This book does not seek to provide a comprehensive overview of threats to privacy and rejoinders to them. Instead it considers several different conceptions of privacy and provides examples of legal inventiveness in confronting some contemporary challenges to the public/private distinction. It provides a...

Recent controversies surrounding the war on terror and American intervention in Iraq and Afghanistan have brought rule of law rhetoric to a fevered pitch. While President Obama has repeatedly emphasized his Administration's commitment to transparency and the rule of law, nowhere has this resolve been so quickly and severely tested than with the issue of the possible prosecution of Bush Administration officials. While some worry that without legal consequences there will be no effective deterrence for the repetition of future transgressions of justice committed at the highest levels of...
