Law and Outsiders Norms, Processes and 'Othering' in the 21st Century

Law and Outsiders is a collection of essays examining cutting edge developments in the law. Fourteen essays from leading young scholars cover five important areas of legal scholarship: adjudication, European law and politics, migration, vulnerable minorities and legal values.

The recurring theme in the volume is the way in which rules and processes are contributing to the creation of 21st Century 'Others' in areas such as domestic constitutional systems, international security and migration, and global human rights discourses. The essays are drawn from the Second International Legal Research Conference, held at King's College London in June 2008.
