Law and Irresponsibility: On the Legitimation of Human Suffering

Law and Irresponsibility: On the Legitimation of Human Suffering

by ScottVeitch (Author)

Synopsis

Exploring how law organises irresponsibility, this book analyses the ways in which law legitimates human suffering by demonstrating how legal institutions operate as much to deflect responsibility for harms suffered as to acknowledge them. It shows how law facilitates the dispersal and disavowal of responsibility.
