This special issue of Studies in Law, Politics and Society focuses
on law and the liberal state; presenting an interdisciplinary and
multifaceted approach to analysis of law and liberty. The first
chapters focus on law's direct relationship with the American
liberal state. John P. Anderson defends John Rawl's pragmatism;
Adelaide Villmoare and Peter Stillman consider the 'Janus faces of
law', a double vision of law where both sides of the face adhere to
one another through neoliberalism; and Timothy Delaune examines
jury nullification. The remaining chapters then go on to consider
specific applications of the law within society. Susan Burgess
provides a critical account of what implications the inclusion of
gays in the US military has for understanding the means by which
the liberal state uses law to include the previously excluded.
Daniel Skinner then problematizes the body politics of American
liberalism, as viewed through the lens of health policy and the
final chapter from Beau Breslin and Katherine Cavanaugh explores
how various legal and judicial policies have highlighted the clash
between the state's imperial authority and Native American
narratives.
