  1. Interpretation, law, and the construction of meaning : collected papers on legal interpretation in theory, adjudication and political practice

    Dordrecht, the Netherlands : Springer, ©2007.

    Who has the power to define words and concepts? Who can successfully assume the power to speak on behalf of the legal community? Which methods are used to justify the power to define? This book discusses these questions from three related perspectives: Legal theory; Judicial reasoning; and Application of law in politics and diplomatic practice.The study of legal semiotics emphasizes the contingency and fluidity of legal concepts and stresses the existence of overlapping, competing and coexisting legal discourses. New problems, changing power structures and societal norms and new faces of injustice - all these force reconsideration, reformulation and even replacement of established doctrines. This book focuses on the application of law in a wide variety of contexts, including international politics and diplomatic practice.
