Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the most exciting and innovative legal scholarship has been driven by historical curiosity. Legal history today comes in a fascinating array of shapes and sizes, from microhistory to global intellectual history. Legal history has expanded beyond traditional parochial boundaries to become increasingly international and comparative in scope and orientation. Drawing on scholarship from around the world, and representing a variety of methodological approaches, areas of expertise, and research agendas, this timely compendium takes stock of legal history and methodology and reflects on the various modes of the historical analysis of law, past, present, and future. Part I explores the relationship between legal history and other disciplinary perspectives including economic, philosophical, comparative, literary, and rhetorical analysis of law. Part II considers various approaches to legal history, including legal history as doctrinal, intellectual, or social history. Part III focuses on the interrelation between legal history and jurisprudence by investigating the role and conception of historical inquiry in various models, schools, and movements of legal thought. Part IV traces the place and pursuit of historical analysis in various legal systems and traditions across time, cultures, and space. Finally, Part V narrows the Handbooks focus to explore several examples of legal history in action, including its use in various legal doctrinal contexts.

Download or read book The Jurisprudence of Emergency written by Nasser Hussain and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2019-08-02 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jurisprudence of Emergency examines British rule in India from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century, tracing tensions between the ideology of liberty and government by law used to justify the colonizing power's insistence on a regime of conquest. Nasser Hussain argues that the interaction of these competing ideologies exemplifies a conflict central to all Western legal systems—between the universal, rational operation of law on the one hand and the absolute sovereignty of the state on the other. The author uses an impressive array of historical evidence to demonstrate how questions of law and emergency shaped colonial rule, which in turn affected the development of Western legality. The pathbreaking insights developed in The Jurisprudence of Emergency reevaluate the place of colonialism in modern law by depicting the colonies as influential agents in the interpretation of Western ideas and practices. Hussain's interdisciplinary approach and subtly shaded revelations will be of interest to historians as well as scholars of legal and political theory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Jurisprudence: An Introduction to the Systematic Study of the Development of Law The study of Historical Jurisprudence possesses a complex attractiveness. It has a value that is at once theoretical and practical, an interest that arises from the ease of acquiring, as well as from the difficulty of comprehending, its principles. The student finds in jurisprudence a mental training that calls into fullest activity all the forces which years devoted to the study of the humanities have placed at his disposal. Languages, history, philosophy, - all these combined are insufficient to unlock every barrier to the complete knowledge of this most far-reaching science. Yet the man devoid of college education, - without any education, indeed, beyond that sufficient to enable him to pass the usual bar examination, - finds in Historical Jurisprudence matters not only of deepest interest, but of highest value. The lawyer finds therein the solid foundation upon which rests modern law; the vital force of that law, which to him is too often a thing to be merely memorized; and understanding of those principles which are not seldom by him only dimly discerned in enactment and precedent. The student of the liberal arts finds in jurisprudence the record of national development, the key to the great movements which have made and unmade dynasties, the explanation of that which would without it be so obscure as to defy understanding. The study of jurisprudence is as profitable for him who has but little time to devote to the pursuit of culture as for him whose whole life is devoted to such pursuit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the central role of history in late nineteenth-century American legal thought. In the decades following the Civil War, the founding generation of professional legal scholars in the United States drew from the evolutionary social thought that pervaded Western intellectual life on both sides of the Atlantic. Their historical analysis of law as an inductive science rejected deductive theories and supported moderate legal reform, conclusions that challenge conventional accounts of legal formalism. Unprecedented in its coverage and its innovative conclusions about major American legal thinkers from the Civil War to the present, the book combines transatlantic intellectual history, legal history, the history of legal thought, historiography, jurisprudence, constitutional theory and the history of higher education.
