Opplysninger | The Law Question (What is it?) -- Common Law Theory -- Natural Law and Positivism -- Legal Science -- Critical Legal Studies -- Feminisms and Gender in Legal Theory -- Race and Colonialism : Legal Theory as "White Mythology" -- Postmodernism and Deconstruction -- Socio-Legal Theory -- Ecolegality : Legal Theory in the Anthropocene -- Postscript -- Bibliography -- Index.. - In Asking the Law Question, Margaret Davies provides an up-to-date account of traditional and contemporary legal theory in its historical, social, and political contexts. This fifth edition retains the critical and contemporary focus of the first four editions. It has been significantly updated and includes many completely re-written passages and new sub-sections that take account of the rapid changes of the 21st century. Legal theory means different things to different scholars. Asking the Law Question reflects the diversity of approaches without attempting to reduce them all into a logical narrative. It is an interdisciplinary work and draws upon a wide range of literary and philosophical sources.
