Description

Explore a new taxonomy of jurisprudence and legal practice in The Four Lacanian Discourses: or Turning Law Inside Out. Published by Birkbeck Law Press and distributed by Routledge, this work uses the discourse theory of Jacques Lacan to examine the foundations of law. While the positivist jurisprudence of H.L.A. Hart remains a highly influential account in the anglophone academy, this book addresses the gaps left by that model. It notes how positivism often overlooks the actual practice of law by lawyers. Furthermore, it examines the reality of academic work, where many professors move beyond Hart's positivist project to engage in policy-oriented scholarship or doctrinal legal scholarship. This text provides a unique perspective for those studying how law functions in relation to society's collective goals and the specific methods used in legal scholarship. It is an essential resource for students and academics looking to understand the theoretical frameworks that shape modern legal thought and practice.
