'Standing Trial' focuses on the relationship between the law and
the concept of the person in modern Arab societies. It directly
addresses the questions of continuities, transformations and
ruptures of such notions. Law performs a central function in
revealing social and historical dynamics and in being itself a tool
of its implementation. The introduction of Western-style legal
systems partially led to a transposition of characteristics of
centrality, individualism and secularism. 'Standing' Trial is the
first truly interdisciplinary study of its subject, combining
legal, historical and socio-legal perspectives. It is a highly
original and important contribution to the study both of the
language of law and the history of law in the Middle East.
Contributors include Khaled Fahmy, Mohamed Nachi, Armando
Salvatore, Oussama Arabi and Maurits Berger.
