Cultural Studies and the Juridical Turn: Culture, Law, and Legitimacy in the Era of Neoliberal Capitalism: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Cultural Studies and the Juridical Turn: Culture, Law, and Legitimacy in the Era of Neoliberal Capitalism" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The relationship between culture and the law has become an emergent concern within contemporary Cultural Studies as a field, but the recent focus has been largely limited to the role played by cultural representations and identity politics in the legitimation of legal discourse and policies. While continuing this emphasis, this collection also looks at the law itself as a cultural production, tracing some of the specific contours of its function in the last three decades. It argues that, with the onset of neoliberal or late capitalism, the law has taken on a new specificity and power, leading to what we are calling the juridical turn, where the presumed legitimacy of the law makes other forms of hegemonic struggle secondary.The collection not only charts the law and cultural policy as they exert their powerful--if often overlooked--influence on every aspect of society and culture, but it also seeks to define this important field of study and demonstrate the substantial role law plays in the production of our social and cultural worlds. In this trailblazing collection of contributions by leading and emerging figures in the field of cultural legal studies, chapters examine various ways in which this process is manifested, such as U.S. legislation and Supreme Court Decisions on gay marriage, immigration, consumer finance, welfare, copyright, and so-called victims rights, along with international comparisons from Europe and Latin America. It promises to be a pathbreaking analysis of our juridically-determined conjuncture. This book was originally published as a special issue of Cultural Studies.

Cultural Studies and the Juridical Turn
The relationship between culture and the law has become an emergent concern within contemporary cultural studies as a field, but the recent focus has been largely limited to the role played by cultural representations and identity politics in the legitimation of legal discourse and policies. While continuing this emphasis, this collection also looks at the law itself as a cultural production, tracing some of the specific contours of its function in the last three decades. It argues that, with the onset of neoliberal or late capitalism, the law has taken on a new specificity and power, leading to what we are calling the juridical turn, where the presumed legitimacy of the law makes other forms of hegemonic struggle secondary.
The collection not only charts the law and cultural policy as they exert their powerful if often overlooked influence on every aspect of society and culture, but it also seeks to define this important field of study and demonstrate the substantial role law plays in the production of our social and cultural worlds. In this trailblazing collection of contributions by leading and emerging figures in the field of cultural legal studies, chapters examine various ways in which this process is manifested, such as US legislation and Supreme Court decisions on gay marriage, immigration, consumer finance, welfare, copyright and the so-called victims rights, along with international comparisons from Europe and Latin America. It promises to be a pathbreaking analysis of our juridically determined conjuncture. This book was originally published as a special issue of Cultural Studies.

First of all, we would like to thank Larry Grossberg, without whose initial support, enthusiasm, and encouragement this project would probably have never materialized at all.
We would also like to thank Charlotte McSharry at Taylor and Francis/Routledge and Bryan Behrenshausen, Associate Editor of Cultural Studies for assisting in several crucial ways in the preparation and publication of this volume, both online and in print. Both were always prompt, meticulous, and tactful in coordinating and editing a complicated collection.
At Columbia College Chicago, we would like to thank all our colleagues in the Cultural Studies Program and elsewhere. Two colleagues in particular have shown abundant generosity, intellectual and otherwise: Ann Gunkel and Debra Parr, whose critical grasp of cultural studies, constant support, and critical conversations have been both an inspiration and steadying influence. We also would like to thanks all the students and friends in our cultural studies classes at Columbia College Chicago over the last several years. Their abundant optimism of the will (and pessimism of the intellect) has kept us moving towards, thinking about, and struggling for a better future and a better world.
