This volume examines the linguistic problems that arise in efforts to translate between law and the social sciences. We usually think of
The contributors to this volume are members of an interdisciplinary working group on Legal Translation that met for a number of years. The group includes scholars from law, philosophy, anthropology, linguistics, political science, psychology, and religious studies. The members of this group approach interdisciplinary communication as a form of disciplinary languages (or, " language. While such experts may intellectually understand that they differ regarding their fundamental assumptions and uses of language, they may nonetheless consistently underestimate the degree to which they are actually talking past one another. This problem takes on real-life significance when one of the fields is law, where how knowledge is conveyed can affect how justice is meted out.
- Provides specific examples of difficulties facing interdisciplinary communication between law and social science in an era where the legal academy is once again turning to social science
- Consists of contributions by law professors and social scientists who met together for a number of years to develop shared understandings of problems as well as productive approaches to interdisciplinary interactions
- Draws on sociolinguistics, anthropological linguistics, and sister disciplines that are well-equipped to shed light on such a question
- Specifically addresses emergent new audiences in law schools and in law-and-society studies that is interested in developing new interdisciplinary approaches
