Description
What Should Legal Analysis Become? by Roberto Mangabeira Unger
This book brings together Unger's work in legal and social theory, arguing for the reconstruction of legal analysis as a discipline of institutional imagination. He explores how a changed practice of legal analysis can help us re-imagine and reshape dominant institutions of representative democracy, market economy, and free civil society.
Unger critiques the dominant style of legal doctrine, which he argues suppresses conflict or contradiction in law. Instead, he shows how we can turn legal analysis into a way of talking about alternative institutional futures for a democratic society. The book's programmatic proposals are placed within a wider field of possibilities, and Unger demonstrates that his arguments are accessible to those without specialized knowledge of law or legal theory.
