This Element aims to explore how the relation between societal
organisation and legal orders - the question of materiality - has
been investigated in philosophy of law. The starting point of the
Element is that such relation has often been left invisible or
thematised in poor and reductive terms. After having explained the
main reasons behind this neglect, the Element provides an overview
of the three main approaches to legal philosophy whose
contributions, though not always effective, can still provide some
insights for a contemporary analysis of legal orders' materiality:
materialism, legal institutionalism, and the new materialism. The
last section of the Element suggests looking for a footing for the
study of materiality in two fields: the metaphysics of relations
and the political economy of legal orders.
