<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>An innovative exposition of a novel materialist legal theory, based on an important reexamination of legal thinking in the tradition of Marx.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>On the basis of a reconstruction of legal theory in the tradition of Marx--a current that has been more or less silenced since the end of the 1970s--<em>Subjectivation and Cohesion</em> develops a critical counter-pole to the theories of law that predominate in social theory today.<br /><br />To this end, the works of Franz Neumann, Otto Kirchheimer, Evgeny Pashukanis, Oskar Negt, Isaac D. Balbus, the so-called 'State-derivation School', Antonio Gramsci, Nicos Poulantzas and Michel Foucault are first analysed for their strengths and weaknesses, and then combined to form something new and much needed: a materialist legal theory that is fit for the present and which avoids the shortcomings of existing theories - above all their disregard for gender relations and the reductive consequences of functionalist, economic or politicist approaches to law.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Sonja Buckel</strong>, Ph.D. (1969), Kassel University, is Professor of Political Theory and chair of the Association for Critical Social Research (AkG). She is a lawyer and political scientist and has published on legal theory, European migration policy and critical social theory.</p>
