The book argues for a return to legal realism and the classical pragmatism of John Dewey and William James and for a rejection of the postmodern critique of critical legal studies. It discusses the two movements with respect to three topics: their view of history, their view of social science, and their view of language. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRejecting the claim that critical legal studies can be seen as the heir of legal realism, \u003ci\u003eLegal Realism Regained\u003c\/i\u003e argues that, with respect to each of these three topics, the realists still present a stronger argument than their more radical descendants. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wouter De Been\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804756597\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804756594\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford Law Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.24w x 0.82d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2008 pg. 210","brand":"Wouter De Been","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44128548913407,"sku":"9780804756594","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_63386572-0d59-4548-9a23-ce9cadbecf26.jpg?v=1687459222","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/legal-realism-regained-wouter-de-been-9780804756594","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
