Focusing on the information economy, free trade exploitation, and
confronting terrorist violence, Mark Findlay critiques law's
regulatory commodification. Conventional legal regulatory modes
such as theft and intellectual property are being challenged by
waves of property access and use, which demand the rethinking of
property 'rights' and their relationships with the law. Law's
Regulatory Relevance? theorises how the law should reposition
itself in order to help rather than hinder new pathways of market
power, by confronting the dominant neo-liberal economic model that
values property through scarcity. With in-depth analysis of
empirical case studies, the author explores how law is returning to
its communal utility in strengthening social ties, which will in
turn restore property as social relations rather than market
commodities. In a world of contested narratives about property
valuing, law needs to ground its inherent regulatory relevance in
the ordering of social change. This book is an essential read for
students of law and regulation wanting to explore the contemporary
dissent against neo-liberal market economies and the issues of
communitarian governance and social resistance. It will also appeal
to policy makers interested in law's failing regulatory capacity,
particularly through criminalising attacks on conventional property
rights, by offering insights into why law's regulatory relevance is
at a cross-roads.
