General Jurisprudence: Understanding Law of a Global Perspective (Law in Context) William Twining This book explores how globalisation influences the understanding of law. Adopting a broad concept of law and a global perspective, it critically reviews Western traditions of academic law and legal theory. Its central thesis is that most processes of so-called'globalisation' take place at sub-global levels and that a healthy cosmopolitan discipline of law encompass all levels of social relations and the legal order of these relations. It illustrates how the mainstream Western canon of jurisprudence needs to be critically reviewed and extended to take account of other legal traditions and cultures. Written by the one of the foremost scholars in the field, this is important work presents an exciting alternative vision of jurisprudence. It challenges the traditional canon of legal theorists and guides the reader through a field undergoing seismic changes in the age of globalisation. This is essential read for all students of jurisprudence and legal theory.
