"Laws of Postmodernity" applies postmodern jurisprudence to the
analysis of a number of areas of law. In analyzing the cultural
significance of law, the editors show how critical jurisprudential
analysis undermined attempts to support a normative viewpoint of
the legal order. In addition, they criticize contextual,
sociological accounts of legal phenomena in order to highlight the
repression of psychoanalysis within. The contributors explore the
blasphemy laws in the wake of the Salman Rushdie affair, and French
critical legal theory, particularly the work of Pierre Legendre,
jurisprudence. Through detailed discussion of rights, the law of
evidence, copyright, authorship and metaphors of writing, it
clearly illustrates the practical as well as the theoretical
significance of postmodern jurisprudence.
