ABSTRACT
The lawscape is the epistemological and ontological tautology of law and the city. The lawscape is the breeding ground of the potential emergence of spatial justice, another concept that the author have been trying to redefine in relation to more specific legal and spatial considerations. In most current literature that focuses on spatial justice, space is replaced by geography. The epistemological passage from lawscape to spatial justice is a smooth one, building on the interstitial process of becoming already in operation within the lawscape. The connection between the lawscape and spatial justice is both fragile and solidly immanent, which means that there is no prescription that guarantees the emergence of spatial justice, yet the lawscape is the only ground on which spatial justice can emerge. The lawscape therefore operates as a surface on which the open normativity of the law and the open ecology of the city emerge.
