Globalisation is news. What does it mean? What are the implications for understanding law? Can one look at law intelligently from a global perspective? This book addresses such issues by asking how traditional Anglo-American legal theory can respond to the challenges of globalisation. A series of critical, in-depth essays focus both on familiar figures, such as Bentham, Holmes, Hart, Dworkin, and Rawls, and on legal pluralism, comparative law, and post-modernism, represented by Santos and Calvino. The author explores the uses and limitations of our heritage of legal theory in dealing with the complexities of ordering relations at global, international, transnational, regional, national, sub-state, and local levels. 4aGlobalization 4aLegal Positivism 4aJurisprudence  a07191/MKRI-P/XII-2007  a05785/MKRI-P/IX-2008  a07191/MKRI-P/XII-2007  a05785/MKRI-P/IX-2008  a05785/MKRI-P/IX-2008  a07191/MKRI-P/XII-2007
