Law and Society in Eastern Europe and Eurasia
Law and society is a multidisciplinary and trans-disciplinary field at the intersection of law, humanities, and the social sciences that focuses on law in context and “law in action” within its historical, political, social, economic, and cultural contexts. The series includes volumes that center this interdisciplinary law and society spirit in the post-communist region, reevaluate the role of law in fostering social change in the region, and promote sociolegal knowledge production in Central and Eastern Europe and Eurasia. The series is open to sociolegal topics from across disciplines, including legal history, legal anthropology, sociology of law, public law, criminology, etc.
