Abstract
BRANCO, Patrícia and IZZO, Valerio Nitrato. Intersections in Law, Culture and the Humanities. Revista Crítica de Ciências Sociais [online]. 2017, n.112, pp.45-72. ISSN 2182-7435. https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.6574.
Ever more often, researchers and scholars endeavor to situate law in its social, political, historical and cultural contexts. At the same time, there is a need to invest law and the social sciences with new roles and resources. We thus propose to look for the many intersections of law, culture and the humanities by presenting four topical preoccupations: (1) interlegality in everyday life; (2) the synesthesia of law; (3) material socio-legal studies; and (4) interactive ecologies of knowledges and methodologies. This will constitute part one of the paper. Parts two and three will look at two particular and very recent interdisciplinary relationships: those between law and music and between law and food. We thus propose it would be appropriate to expose students, learners and practitioners of all kinds to the difference that an understanding of the links between law, culture and the humanities makes.
Keywords : culture; ecology of knowledge; food; humanities; law; music; socio-legal studies.
