Description: The New Legal Realism: Volume 1 by Stewart Macaulay, Elizabeth Mertz, Thomas W. Mitchell Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The first volume in a two-volume series, The New Legal Realism, Volume 1 provides both a macro-level blueprint and many micro-level applications for interdisciplinary legal research. Its methodological insights will be essential for anyone interested in the future of law-and-society. Publisher Description This is the first of two volumes announcing the emergence of the new legal realism as a field of study. At a time when the legal academy is turning to social science for new approaches, these volumes chart a new course for interdisciplinary research by synthesizing law on the ground, empirical research, and theory. Volume 1 lays the groundwork for this novel and comprehensive approach with an innovative mix of theoretical, historical, pedagogical, and empirical perspectives. Their empirical work covers such wide-ranging topics as the financial crisis, intellectual property battles, the legal disenfranchisement of African-American landowners, and gender and racial prejudice on law school faculties. The methodological blueprint offered here will be essential for anyone interested in the future of law-and-society.
