Description
"Modern legal theory contains a wide range of approaches and topics from economic analysis to feminist legal theory to traditional analytical theories about justice. This variety of jurisprudential work has created a problem: students and theorists working in one tradition may have difficulty understanding the concepts and terminology of a different tradition. This book works to make terminology and ways of thinking accessible." "This dictionary covers topics from the 'autonomy of law' to the 'zero sum game', from 'autopoiesis' to 'wealth maximization', and from 'John Austin' to 'Ludwig Wittgenstein'. The most important concepts and ideas are presented in a simple dictionary format. There are also many longer entries, in which the initial definition gives an accessible explanation, but the entry goes on to give more detailed information about the history of an idea and the debates currently surrounding it."--Jacket.
