LAWS-8055 (1-2) Seminar: Media, Popular Culture, and the Law

Examines how the institutions, practices, and the very identity of law are in part affected by the media through which law is apprehended and communicated. Hence the general question posed in this seminar: To what extent and how are the forms and methods of the new media having an effect on the perception, role, and identity of law? This is a year-long seminar.
