- This approx. 70,000 word monograph draws on qualitative empirical research conducted in the United Kingdom and Canada. It is based on interviews with legal activists, lawyers, and clinicians, observation, archival research, and documentary analysis (legislation, case-law, Hansard debates). It challenges dominant approaches to time that have been mobilised in legal and socio-legal scholarship. Engaging with a wide range of literatures including legal theory, socio-legal studies, anthropology, science/technology studies, labour and employment law, and cultural theory, it advances an original interdisciplinary framework theorising the relationship between law, time, and materiality. It won the 2017 SLSA Theory and History Book Prize.
