Art is very well suited to deal with such annoyance, or to provoke it. This study shows how art operates as an interface, here, between two spheres: the larger realm of justice and the more specific system of law. This interface has a double potential. It can make law and justice affirm or productively disturb one another. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproaching issues of injustice that are felt globally, eight chapters focus on original works of art not dealt with before, including Milo Rau's \u003ci\u003eThe Congo Tribunal\u003c\/i\u003e, Elfriede Jelinek's \u003ci\u003eUlrike Maria Stuart\u003c\/i\u003e, Valeria Luiselli's \u003ci\u003eTell Me How It Ends \u003c\/i\u003eand Nicolas Winding Refn's \u003ci\u003eOnly God Forgives\u003c\/i\u003e. They demonstrate how through art's interface, impasses are addressed, new laws are made imaginable, the span of systems of laws is explored, and the differences in what people consider to be just are brought to light. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book considers the improvement of law and justice to be a global struggle and, whilst the issues dealt with are culture-specific, it argues that the logics introduced are applicable everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hart Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44227210117375,"sku":"9781509944385","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/getimage_f0951916-d340-4e67-a115-d75f428593a7.jpg?v=1706159446","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781509944385","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
