Brewing Legal Times - Things, Form, and the Enactment of Law (Hardcover): Emily Grabham Brewing Legal Times - Things, Form, and the Enactment of Law (Hardcover)
Emily Grabham
R1,730 Discovery Miles 17 300 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Much socio-legal scholarship assumes that even if experiences of law and time differ, people and laws exist within an overarching, shared timeframe. In Brewing Legal Times, Emily Grabham boldly departs from this assumption, drawing on perspectives from actor-network theory, feminist theory, and legal anthropology to advance our understanding of law and time. Grabham argues that human, material, and legal relationships constantly generate new temporalities because of human and nonhuman interactions. By engaging with the creative potential of "things" such as cells, viruses, reports, legal documents, and more, our understanding of law and time is subject to change. In challenging the scholarship on the materiality of time and law, Brewing Legal Times encourages us to confront the multiple and mundane ways in which time is enacted through legal networks.

Law and Time (Paperback): Emily Grabham, Sian Beynon-Jones Law and Time (Paperback)
Emily Grabham, Sian Beynon-Jones
R1,382 Discovery Miles 13 820 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Research on law's relationship with time has flourished over the past decade. This edited collection aims to put law and time scholarship into wider context, advancing conversations on time and temporalities between socio-legal scholars, anthropologists, sociologists, geographers and historians. Through a diverse range of contributions, the collection explores how legal modalities of time emerge and have effects within wider clusters of social and political action. Themes include: law's diverse roles in maintaining linear historicist models of time; law's participation in the materialisation of times; and the unsteady effects of temporal pluralism and polytemporalities in law. De-naturalising the 'time' in law and time scholarship, this collection positions time as something that can be enacted and materialised as well as experienced, with distinct implications for questions of social justice.

Intersectionality and Beyond - Law, Power and the Politics of Location (Hardcover): Emily Grabham, Davina Cooper, Jane... Intersectionality and Beyond - Law, Power and the Politics of Location (Hardcover)
Emily Grabham, Davina Cooper, Jane Krishnadas, Didi Herman
R5,747 R4,654 Discovery Miles 46 540 Save R1,093 (19%) Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This collection addresses the present and the future of the concept of intersectionality within socio-legal studies. Intersectionality provides a metaphorical schema for understanding the interaction of different forms of disadvantage, including race, sexuality, and gender. But it also goes further to provide a particular model of how these aspects of social identity and location converge - whether at the level of subjectivity, everyday life, in culture or in the institutional practices of state and other bodies. Including contributions from a range of international scholars, this book interrogates what has become a key organizing concept across a range of disciplines, most particularly law, political theory, and cultural studies.

Women, Precarious Work and Care - The Failure of Family-friendly Rights (Paperback): Emily Grabham Women, Precarious Work and Care - The Failure of Family-friendly Rights (Paperback)
Emily Grabham
R482 Discovery Miles 4 820 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Most workers on temporary, zero hours and involuntary part-time contracts in the UK are women. Many are also carers. Yet employment law tends to exclude such women from family-friendly rights. Drawing on interviews with women in precarious work, this book exposes the everyday problems that these workers face balancing work and care. It argues for stronger and more extensive rights that address precarious workers' distinctive experiences. Introducing complex legal issues in an accessible way, this crucial text exposes the failures of family-friendly rights and explains how to grant these women effective rights in the wake of COVID-19.
