See examines the relationship between law, vision and representation. Its interdisciplinary essays ask how legal institutions make people and events visible, and how images, symbols and acts of observation influence ideas of knowledge and justice.
Contributors explore abstract photography, philosophical accounts of judgment, the representation of the past, ideology and the familiar image of blindfolded justice. The collection also includes visual poetry, connecting legal theory with artistic approaches to seeing.
The first volume in the Law and the Senses series, the book is intended for readers interested in legal philosophy, visual culture and the ways institutions organise perception. The original publisher PDF retains the complete essays, illustrations, references, contributor information and index.
