Alain Supiot 
Homo Juridicus [EPUB ebook] 
On the Anthropological Function of the Law

Support

In this groundbreaking work, French legal scholar Alain Supiot examines the relationship of society to legal discourse. He argues that the law is how justice is implemented in secular society, but it is not simply a technique to be manipulated at will: it is also an expression of the core beliefs of the West. We must recognize its universalizing, dogmatic nature and become receptive to other interpretations from non-Western cultures to help us avoid the clash of civilizations. In
Homo Juridicus, Supiot deconstructs the illusion of a world that has become ‘flat’ and undifferentiated, regulated only by supposed ‘laws’ of science and the economy, and peopled by contract-makers driven by only the calculation of their individual interests.
