ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The principal question that the book has addressed concerns the relation between law as historical event and law as socio-political institution, its character of juridical event taking place in a given historical, political and institutional situation. In order to answer this question, the book has investigated the constitution and representation of places of justice and juridical spaces in legal, literary, philosophical and political texts, in graphical representations, as well as in physical places both actual and virtual. In order to understand the role of these different judicial places and juridical spaces in society, their stability as well as openness to change, and also the spacing of law and politics, Castoriadis notions social imaginary and social imaginary significations are fundamental. This will necessitate novel mappings of law and social reality, new ways of becoming juridical.
