Jews, Women, and Bastards in Daniel Deronda --Of Stranger Spaces --IndexLaw calls communities into being and constitutes the "we" it governs. This act of defining produces an outside as well as an inside, a border whose crossing is guarded, maintaining the identity, coherence, and integrity of the space and people within. Those wishing to enter must negotiate a complex terrain of defensive mechanisms, expectations, assumptions, and legal proscriptions. Essentially, law enforces the boundary between inside and outside in both physical and epistemological ways. Law and the Stranger explores the ways law identifies and responds to strangers within and across borders. It analyzes the ambiguous place strangers occupy in communities not their own and reflects on how dealing with strangers challenges the laws and communities that invite or parry them. As the book reveals, strangers are made through law, rather than born through accidents of geography.Amherst series in law, jurisprudence, and social thought.NoncitizensEmigration and immigration lawPhilosophyLawPhilosophySociological jurisprudenceNoncitizens.Emigration and immigration lawPhilosophy.LawPhilosophy.Sociological jurisprudence.342.08/3Sarat Austin254475Douglas Lawrence554986Umphrey Martha Merrill1088780MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785122403321Law and the stranger3834207UNINA
