It also draws on a wealth of primary sources including case reports, historic campaign materials and media analysis alongside wider ethnographic interviews with academics, students and lawyers and participant observation at social justice conferences, workshops and events. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book explains the way in which lawyers' networks facilitate their collective positioning and influence their strategic decision making, which in turn shapes their interactions with social activists, with other lawyers and with the state itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacqueline Kinghan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509950087\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509950089\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hart Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/26\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.47d","brand":"Jacqueline Kinghan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44071567098111,"sku":"9781509950089","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bd3a2f01-0fc5-4eef-94fb-f5b5f7d6336a.jpg?v=1685436871","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lawyers-networks-and-progressive-social-jacqueline-kinghan-9781509950089","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
