Description
Book SynopsisIn Brewing Legal Times, Emily Grabham boldly draws on perspectives from actor-network theory, feminist theory, and legal anthropology to advance our understanding of law and time.
Trade Review‘Emily Grabham’s book is path-breaking theorization of regulation and a pioneering methodological demonstration. It delivers insights not only in relation to the author’s chosen examples, but also far beyond – including circumstances in which humans themselves are treated as objects.’ -- Carol J. Greenhouse * Journal of Law & Society vol 44:03:2017 *
"I was gripped from page to page as if reading a novel, being drawn into the various worlds that Grabham describes and, more so, into the conceptual world which this book creates...This book will be a provocative and generative resource for a wide range of interdisciplinary scholars looking for new ways to understand the worlds which seemingly mundane legal practices create." -- Sarah Keenan, University of London * Feminist Legal Studies, vol 26 *
