Description

Explore the complex relationship between legal systems and colonial history with Law, Orientalism and Postcolonialism: The Jurisdiction of the Lotus-Eaters. This scholarly work from the Discourses of Law series examines how occidental law functioned as a tool for colonial expansion. While the role of law in expanding colonial reach is well-documented, this text looks deeper into how legal discourse shaped individual subjects. It investigates how the regulation of pleasure served to refine and domesticate modern Western subjects. By analyzing legally sanctioned outlets for private and social enjoyment, the book reveals how these structures continue to influence the individual today. This title is an essential resource for those studying international law, postcolonial theory, and the history of legal subjects. It provides a unique perspective on how law goes beyond mere governance to influence the very nature of social and individual identity through the permission of pleasure.
