More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of existential phenomenology and law, the essay explores how Maurice Merleau-Ponty's insights into the social world could shape a phenomenology of law. It raises the question of the philosophical implications of his views for understanding legal concepts. While Merleau-Ponty's influence remains strong in North America, his prominence has waned in France, overshadowed by figures like Sartre and various critical theories. This neglect is seen as unfortunate, given the potential richness his ideas could bring to contemporary legal philosophy.
