Dangerous Supplements
Author: Peter Fitzpatrick
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 9780822311218
Category : Jurisprudence
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
In Dangerous Supplements expert legal scholars employing a variety of theoretical perspectives--feminism, poststructuralism, semiotics, and Marxism--challenge predominating views in jurisprudence. Prevailing notions of the nature of the law, they argue, have failed to recognize the law's dependence on social constructs and the indeterminance of language. The contributors further claim that proponents of traditional notions have borrowed knowledge from other fields, only to reject that knowledge as ultimately subversive and dangerous in its ramifications. Taking as a point of departure H. L. A. Hart's The Concept of the Law, Peter Fitzgerald shows how Hart adopted Wittgenstein's linguistic theory to overthrow J. L. Austin's "simple" conception of rules and habits in law, only to jettison this theory in order to locate the essence of law in its evolution from a "primal scene." Other chapters examine the way in which the setting of English law above social relations has masked an imperial mission; how the philosophies of Hayek and Marx, as well as the discourses of liberalism, feminism, semiotics, and poststructuralism, have been assiduously marginalized and rendered inessential to jurisprudence.

Criminal Justice in Post-Mao China
Author: Shao-Chuan Leng
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 9780873959490
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
The post-Mao commitment to modernization, coupled with a general revulsion against the lawlessness of the Cultural Revolution, has led to a significant law reform movement in the People's Republic of China. China's current leadership seeks to restore order and morale, to attract domestic support and external assistance for its modernization program, and to provide a secure, orderly environment for economic development. It has taken a number of steps to strengthen its laws and judicial system, among which are the PRC's first substantive and procedural criminal codes. This is the first book-length study of the most important area of Chinese law--the development, organization, and functioning of the criminal justice system in China today. It examines both the formal aspects of the criminal justice system--such as the court, the procuracy, lawyers, and criminal procedure--and the extrajudicial organs and sanctions that play important roles in the Chinese system. Based on published Chinese materials and personal interviews, the book is essential reading for persons interested in human rights and laws in China, as well as for those concerned with China's political system and economic development. The inclusion of selected documents and an extensive bibliography further enhance the value of the book.
