Abstract

‘[Law] constantly spills from the court and the text into life, and to trace that quiet and imperceptible crossing of boundaries requires a jurisprudence that is attentive to the little slips, repetitions and compulsions, melancholic moods or hysterical outbursts, that hint at the transgressive movement from one order to another, from conscious to unconscious law. More than that, the law depends upon a geography of mental spaces, which cannot be reduced to its physical presences, its text (lex scripta), or its apparent rules. The appearance of law is only ever an index or sign, a vestige or relic of anterior and hidden causes.’
