Postmodern Law and Disorder: Psychoanalytic Semiotics, Chaos, and Juridic Exegeses

No Customer Reviews

The postmodernist view, with its emphasis on the nature of discursive practices in constructing subjectivity and reality, has found many applications. This book develops a critically informed psychoanalytic semiotic view derived from Lacan, and applies it to the study of law. It also integrates some of the central concepts of chaos theory in describing how the legal text is constructed and how it may be read. Postmodern feminist analyses focusing on a possible ecriture feminine provide key insights, and the notion of an empowered democracy is offered as a potentially generating milieu for a revolutionary replacement discourse.
