This collection of essays explores the different ways the insights
from complexity theory can be applied to law. Complexity theory - a
variant of systems theory - views law as an emergent, complex,
self-organising system comprised of an interactive network of
actors and systems that operate with no overall guiding hand,
giving rise to complex, collective behaviour in law communications
and actions. Addressing such issues as the unpredictability of
legal systems, the ability of legal systems to adapt to changes in
society, the importance of context, and the nature of law, the
essays look to the implications of a complexity theory analysis for
the study of public policy and administrative law, international
law and human rights, regulatory practices in business and finance,
and the practice of law and legal ethics. These are areas where
law, which craves certainty, encounters unending, irresolvable
complexity. This collection shows the many ways complexity theory
thinking can reshape and clarify our understanding of the various
problems relating to the theory and practice of law.
