ABSTRACT

This chapter sketches an account of discursive and material critical legal writings on law and the body. It begins with the discursive and proceeds to the material sequence. This ordering is not meant to designate a hierarchy of accounts in the sense of x sequence being more radical or valuable than the other. Nor does this ordering intend to propose a historical progressive narrative. Such a suggestion would have been preposterous and untrue, as research in both of these sequences is still ongoing. Instead, what you witness is an attempt to delineate in a meaningful manner the abundance of work within this field of legal research.
