The chapters identify key gaps, disagreements, and challenges in the study of law and politics through fresh empirical analyses, including studies of rights (such as \u003ci\u003eCharter\u003c\/i\u003e and Indigenous rights) and of institutional actors and processes - courts, legislatures, executives, expert witnesses, judicial selection, constitutional amendment, and government lawyers. The volume addresses a wide range of legal domains, including constitutional, administrative, immigration and refugee, federalism, and electoral law, while also highlighting areas where deeper interdisciplinary engagement is needed. Several chapters contribute to theoretical development, and many adopt a forward-looking perspective, identifying urgent research questions and setting future research agendas. Collectively, the contributions demonstrate how greater interdisciplinary collaboration can enhance our understanding of law's relationship to power, public policy, and society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emmett MacFarlane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487513283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487513283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Emmett MacFarlane","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48013685522687,"sku":"9781487513283","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33e2ad99-ead2-4688-a4e5-85b70dd63db8.jpg?v=1767744122","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/disciplinary-divides-in-the-study-emmett-macfarlane-9781487513283","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
