Shines a light on the emerging field of law dedicated to responding
to and resolving the crises of the twenty-first century In an
increasingly globalized world, a complex and interlocking web of
nations, governments, non-state actors, laws, and rules affect
human behavior. When crisis hits-whether that be extrajudicial
detention, unprompted deportation, pandemics, or natural
disasters-lawyers are increasingly among the first responders,
equipped with the knowledge necessary to navigate the regulations
of this ever more complex world. Crisis Lawyering explores this
phenomenon and attempts to identify and define what it means to
engage in the practice of law in crisis situations. In so doing, it
hopes to sketch out the contours of the emerging field of crisis
lawyering. Contributors to this volume explore cases surrounding
domestic violence; dealing with immigrants in detention and banned
from travel; policing in Ferguson, Missouri; the kidnapping of
journalists; and climate change, among other crises. Their analysis
not only serves as guidance to lawyers in such situations, but also
helps others who deal with crises understand those crises-and the
role of lawyers in them-better so that they may respond to them
more effectively, efficiently, collaboratively and creatively.
Crisis Lawyering shines a light on the emerging field of law
dedicated to responding to and resolving the complex crises of the
twenty-first century.
