Adjudication in Action: An Ethnomethodology of Law, Morality and Justice

By Baudouin Dupret

Book Overview

A rich, praxeological study that engages with 'living law' as it unfolds in context and in action to develop a fuller understanding of what law is, Adjudication in Action engages with Wittgenstein's later thought along with recent developments in ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, to explore people's orientation around and reification of legal categories within the framework of institutional settings.
