Some attract wide attention; others mostly escape notice. Indeed in the United States trials have recently become rare, with some scholars bemoaning the death of the trial. This issue of "Studies in Law, Politics and Society" contains, along with two general interest articles, a symposium on the past, present, and future of the trial. It brings together the work of leading scholars to think about the nature, utility, and limits of trials. This work takes stock of the field, charts its progress, and points the way for its future development. 410 0$aStudies in law, politics, and society ;$vv. 49. 606 $aPolitical sociology$xResearch 606 $aPolitical sociology$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aSociological jurisprudence$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aSociology$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aTrial practice 606 $aPractice of law 606 $aLaw & society$2bicssc 606 $aCourts & procedure$2bicssc 606 $aLaw$xTrial Practice$2bisacsh 615 0$aPolitical sociology$xResearch. 615 0$aPolitical sociology$xResearch 615 0$aSociological jurisprudence$xResearch 615 0$aSociology$xResearch 615 0$aTrial practice. 615 0$aPractice of law. 615 7$aLaw & society. 615 7$aCourts & procedure. 615 7$aLaw$xTrial Practice. 676 $a347.07 701 $aSarat$b Austin$0254475 801 0$bE7B 801 1$bE7B 801 2$bZJC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778403903321 996 $aStudies in law, politics, and society$93676804 997 $aUNINA
