Law and Social Change

by Sharyn L. Roach Anleu

"This comprehensive text provides a clear and accessible guide to the sociology of law, surveying current theoretical debates and examining socio-legal research." "Accessible and wide-ranging, Law and Social Change provides an invaluable introduction to, and critical analysis of, law as a social institution and social process. As such it will be essential reading for students of both social science and law courses and, in particular, those taking options on the sociology of law, legal theory, criminology and criminal justice studies."--Jacket.
