Since the classic contributions of Weber and Durkheim, the
sociology of law has raised key questions on the place of law in
society. Drawing together both theoretical and empirical themes, in
this book Mathieu Deflem reviews the field's major accomplishments
and reveals the value of the multiple ways in which sociologists
study the social structures and processes of law. He discusses both
historical and contemporary issues, from early theoretical
foundations and the work of Weber and Durkheim, through the
contribution of sociological jurisprudence, to the development of
modern perspectives to clarify how sociologists study law. Chapters
also look at the role of law in relation to the economy, politics,
culture, and the legal profession; and aspects of law enforcement
and the globalization of law. This book will appeal to scholars and
students of the sociology of law, jurisprudence, social and
political theory, and social and political philosophy.
