Sociology of Law

3 credits
Summer 4 (July 13 - 31)
Online - Synchronous (scheduled)

Course Description

SOCI 2023 - SOciology of Law

This course examines law as a social phenomenon enmeshed in 'everyday life', rather than conceiving of law as existing only in official institutions (courts or legislatures), in legal documents (acts, regulations, and orders) or practiced by 'legal actors' (lawyers, judges and police officers). Through various theoretical approaches, students will analyze legal change and the risk of law in social organizations.
