Ubiquitous Law explores the possibility of understanding the law in
dissociation from the State while, at the same time, establishing
the conditions of meaningful communication between various
legalities. This book argues that the enquiry into the legal has
been biased by the implicit or explicit presupposition of the
State's exclusivity to a claim to legality as well as the tendency
to make the enquiry into the law the task of experts, who purport
to be able to represent the legal community's commitments in an
authoritative manner. Very worryingly, the experts' point of view
then becomes constitutive of the law and parasitic to and
distortive of people's commitments. Ubiquitous Law counter-suggests
a new methodology for legal theory, which will not be based on
rigid epistemological and normative assumptions but rather on
self-reflection and mutual understanding and critique, so as to
establish acceptable differences on the basis of a commonality.
