About this ebook
Biopolitics and Resistance in Legal Education (1st Edition), edited by Thomas Giddens and Luca Siliquini-Cinelli, provides a critical framework for analyzing how law schools mold students into professional "subjects" and how educators and students resist these rigid institutional structures. [1]
The text is organized into three primary sections, covering the following detailed topics and chapters according to the Routledge Book Overview:
Part I: Normative Resistance
This section examines how institutional and systemic hierarchies are contested using diverse pedagogical tools, legal frameworks, and digital platforms. [1]
- Beyond Decolonisation: Exploring legal learning after and beyond the dismantling of modern necropolitical frameworks.
- Queer and Feminist Pedagogy: Using creative mediums like "legal zines" to centralize lived experiences and humanize student interactions.
- Active Citizenship: How school education and fundamental rights shape responsible civic behavior.
- Digital Communication: The value and boundaries of utilizing spaces like Twitter to build modern student communities.
- Disrupting Hierarchies: The precise role that legal educators must play in breaking down barriers within both the academy and the legal profession.
Part II: Internal Resistance
These topics look at personal, linguistic, and creative approaches to challenging the dry, abstract mechanics of traditional legal training from within the classroom. [1]
- Poetry and Transcendence: Viewing the law teacher as a poet to overcome robotic and clinical approaches to legal study.
- Situated Pedagogy: Sharing narrative-driven legal learning stories through frameworks like TRAMA.
- Satire and Humor: Exploring The Comedy of Corpus Iuris to critique historic legal structures.
- Cultural Legal Studies: Integrating cultural discourse into the curriculum to contextualize how legal identity is formed.
- Popular Storytelling: Utilizing popular culture and conversation as pedagogical tools to guide law students' personal identity projects.
Part III: Posthuman Resistance
This portion reviews the limitations of human-centric legal systems and re-envisions legal learning through broader environmental and philosophical lenses. [1]
- Braidotti’s Posthuman Knowledge: A critical evaluation of Rosi Braidotti's theories applied directly to legal education.
- More-Than-Human Entanglement: Training future lawyers to integrate human law within the wider ecosystem and non-human environments.
- Relational Law: Moving toward a paradigm shift where law is recognized as a co-emergence of all living beings.
- Law Without Ends: Analyzing a philosophical framework for studying the law outside of purely capitalistic or utility-driven goals. [1]
