The essays address how, and with what effects, different expressive modes (ceremonial dance, live street theater, the acoustics of radio, the affective range of film, to name a few) help to construct, memorialize, and disseminate political and legal meaning.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Drawing upon a wealth of visual, textual and sound sources, \u003ci\u003eA Cultural History of Law in the Modern Age \u003c\/i\u003epresents essays that examine key cultural case studies of the period on the themes of justice, constitution, codes, agreements, arguments, property and possession, wrongs, and the legal profession.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46631880949918,"sku":"UBD-9781350368705","price":56.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781350368705.jpg?v=1774310980","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781350368705","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
