Sommario/riassunto |
|
The author of this text argues that the American worship of law and legality can at times be so pathological that it comes to resemble a type of legal madness, or "jurismania". He concludes that much of the "rule of law" is simply culturally sanctioned obsessive-compulsive behaviour. |
