{"product_id":"geography-of-law-william-taylor-9781841135571","title":"Geography of Law: Landscape, Identity and Regulation","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe essays in this collection relate notions of space and representations of interior and exterior spaces to concerns for individual identity and autonomy as these are framed by practices of governance or codified by law. They examine the manner in which imaginative frameworks forming an environment for human action are objectified through practices aimed at governing relations between people or conversely, the way in which legal codes and statutes rely upon there being a relationship between individuals and their surroundings. The Geography of Law brings together research from a range of disciplines to question how urban spaces, works of architecture and landscape, and representations of socio-legal ideas in texts, city plans and paintings, engage with the construction of identity, character and values, both historically and the present day. Essayists question the usefulness of space and regulation as categories of critical analysis, scrutinize familiar uses of these categories and invent new ones. This motivation behind the collection is based on an assumption that space and law carry moral worth and elicit moral considerations however variable their value might be. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eContributors: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMichael Austin (Professor of Architecture at the School of Architecture, Unitec, Auckland) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRichard Blythe (Senior Lecturer at the School of Architecture, University of Tasmania, He is also a founding partner of the Sydney\/Hobart based architectural practice Terroir) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMichael Levine (Professor in the Department of Philosophy, University of Western Australia, Perth) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePeter Kuch (Professor in the School of English, University of New South Wales, Sydney) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJohn Macarthur (Senior Lecturer in the School of Geography, Planning and Architecture, University of Queensland, Brisbane) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKristine Miller (Assistant Professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRichard Mohr (Co-director of the Legal Intersections Research Centre and Head of Postgraduate Studies in the Faculty of Law, University of Wollongong, Australia) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGeorge Pavlich (Professor of Sociology at the University of Alberta, Edmonton) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWilliam Taylor (Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Visual Arts, University of Western Australia, Perth)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Taylor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841135577\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841135571\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hart Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.35d","brand":"William Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962694291711,"sku":"9781841135571","price":57.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e4f5647-eb62-4b61-b116-b3bddca92a15.jpg?v=1750652243","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/geography-of-law-william-taylor-9781841135571","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
