Re-examine the very foundations of the Rule of Law through the lens of critical legal theory. This intellectual journey explores how contemporary critiques of language and meaning shape our understanding of legal certainty and justice. By engaging with modernist literature, including D.H. Lawrence’s “Kangaroo,” and thinkers like Derrida and Bakhtin, the book offers a robust ‘post-positivist’ conception of law, arguing justice is imperfectly possible. Essential reading for Indian law students, legal scholars, and academics passionate about jurisprudence, philosophy of law, and the vital connection between law and literature.
