Law and Sociology contains a broad range of essays by scholars interested in the interactions between law and sociology. In common with earlier volumes in the Current Legal Issues series, it seeks both a theoretical and methodological focus.

The volume includes amongst other topics, a sociology of jurisprudence, an examination of the social dynamics of regulatory interactions, and a consideration of the place of legal culture in the sociology of law.

• Explores the diverse ways that law and sociology interconnect and interact
• The Current Legal Issues series explores the interactions of law across disciplinary boundaries
