Legal Theory

Omtale

This new textbook offers an important new guide to legal theory in its contemporary context. It reflects recent jurisprudential debates on what the theory of law should look like in a legal landscape where media and communication play an increasingly central role. Firstly, it offers a guide to the fundamental principles and basic concepts of the theory of law. In so doing, it lays the foundations of the legal theory; the formation of legal systems; and the application of laws. In the second part, these basic theoretical principles are explored through the prism of the contemporary context, with particular emphasis on the impact of communication.
