Before now, Jean-Luc Nancy's contributions to legal and political
theory have been largely overlooked and lacking the in-depth
appraisal they deserve. In this unique collection, eighteen notable
Nancy scholars contextualize Nancy's work in these areas within the
broad corpus of his other concerns.By emphasizing the originality
of his theories in a globalizing age, each distinctive chapter
provides a new and valuable insight into Nancy's legal and
political philosophy. Together with his work on sense, community
and art, these cutting edge contributions examine Nancy's
conceptions of justice, legality and world in conjunction with the
interpretation and rationality of:
- The ontology of the event.
- The form of relationality.
- The effects of globalization.
- The importance of Christianity in contemporary legal and
political theory.
Including a brand new essay by Nancy himself, this collection marks
an important and timely step in a rich area of study.
