«'To spatialize law is to venture into exciting and still largely untracked space. This collection, which ranges from Glasgow to Sierra Leone, from Canada to Peru, provides detailed examples of the too-often overlooked entanglements of legal practice and knowledge with the foundational geographies of social and political life. Extending analyses of legal pluralism, Spatializing Law also reveals the presence of multiple legal geographies, materialized and fought over through maps, places, and spaces. Legal anthropology, critical legal geography, and socio-legal studies will be enriched by this important contribution.' Nicholas Blomley, Simon Fraser University, Canada 'Spatializing Law turns geography over, exposing its provisionality, contestability and high political stakes. The result is a collection that challenges conventional understandings about how and where regulation enters social life - through essays keyed to the contradictions of globalization viewed "from the ground" as disparate forms of alienation, attachment, governance and history-making.'
