Comparative studies can reveal much about how law is formed out of
social reality and political power by exploring these interactions
in different national contexts. In this work Mauricio
Garcia-Villegas compares ideas about law and society in France and
the United States, demonstrating different approaches to
sociopolitical legal studies. Using the interdisciplinary tools of
the sociology of law, critical legal theory, and sociolegal
studies, Garcia-Villegas builds up an insightful overview of what
constitutes law and society theory and practice in France and the
United States. He brings together diverse perspectives and
practices that generally do not communicate well with one another,
as is often the case between the critical theory of law of jurists
and the legal sociology of sociologists. This study will allow
readers to understand the sociology of law in a comparative
perspective and sets out a new research agenda for the field of
sociopolitical legal studies.
