Just Silences The Limits and Possibilities of Modern Law

"Just Silencesis an entirely novel contribution, challenging current sociolegal scholars to think about whether they have ignored the question of justice in their focus on law and power. It will undoubtedly attract attention and spark debate, which cannot help but be a healthy impetus to questioning and growth in the field."--Elizabeth Mertz, University of Wisconsin Law School and Senior Research Fellow, American Bar Foundation "Just Silencesis truly a work of astounding brilliance. It has influenced my thinking about my field permanently. Constable has a way of backing you into really extraordinary insights about the contemporary legal culture we occupy, and the project of knowledge and power that so many of us in sociolegal studies are engaged in. Her book will echo in discussions across a broad intersection of law, the humanities, and social science."--Jonathan Simon, Professor of Law, University of California, Berkeley, coauthor ofCultural Analysis, Cultural Studies, and the LawConstable, Marianne is the author of 'Just Silences The Limits and Possibilities of Modern Law', published 2007 under ISBN 9780691133775 and ISBN 0691133778.
