Popular Culture and Legal Pluralism Narrative as Law
Wendy A Adams is an Associate Professor of Law at McGill University in Canada. His research interests include legal pluralism, law and popular culture, commodification and human-animal studies. She has published on these and related topics. This book will be of great interest to scholars and specialists in legal and popular culture, as well as to those interested in interdisciplinary work in legal pluralism. The author demonstrates the effectiveness and desirability of applying a pluralistic analysis of law to explore a much broader range of topics than is possible from the limited perspective of state law alone. The study examines whether the allegedly unlawful acts could actually be cases of rethought alternative legality and what implications this implies. As a striking example, works on critical dystopia and the beliefs and behaviors of eco-/animal terrorists can be understood as common narrative and normative obligations that constitute the law as fully as the state when it enacts and judges laws. Based on theories of critical legal pluralism and psychological theories of narrative identity, this book argues for an understanding of popular culture as a legal authority that is not mediated by translation into state law. In the narrative of our identities, we rely on collective cultural narratives, and our engaged narrative self/nomos becomes the link between law and popular culture as mutually constituting discourses.
“Studies of legal pluralism, law, and popular culture have kept a cautious distance from each other – perhaps fearing that, like matter and antimatter, they will not survive the encounter. But Wendy Adams blew them up and showed what happens when you take them both seriously. It reveals the tacit assumptions and necessary implications of a work directed by Rod Macdonald and behind him Robert Cover. It cannot be said that they shrink violets, but Adams has laid out a theory of legal consciousness and identity that is much more uncompromising. While critics in these different fields will find much to argue, now all must consider Adams` ambitious reasoning and its radical and conflicting conclusions.
