The essays collected in this volume reflect the profound impact of
Martha Nussbaum's philosophical writings on law and legal
scholarship. The capabilities approach that she has largely
authored has influenced the approach scholars take to the law of
disabilities, both in the United States and in Canada, as well as
to international human rights and to domestic private law's
protections of vulnerable populations. Her analyses of the
relationship between our emotions and our thought and action has
triggered a re-assessment of the legal regulation and recognition
of emotion in a range of fields, most particularly in the field of
criminal law; and her writing on the nature of dignity has informed
an understanding of the emerging civil rights of gay and lesbian
citizens worldwide. Our appreciation of the role of narrative in
legal thought and discourse and the contributions of literature to
law and legal culture, have also been broadened and deepened by her
contributions. Taken together, and including the introduction by
the editor, the essays collected in this volume demonstrate the
far-reaching impact of Nussbaum's philosophical oeuvre.
