The essays in this volume illuminate how law helps us to absorb and contend with loss and its reverberations, channeling the powerful emotions associated with death and protecting those vulnerable to them. At the same time, law creates a regulatory framework for death as it establishes the necessity for a clear demarcation of the boundary between life and death, defines what we can and cannot do with the remains of the dead, and creates both privileges and disabilities for survivors. The contributors to the volume also explore how mourning generates critiques of existing legal and political orders which seem compelled by calls from the dead, unleashing an indifference to legal consequences in survivors that can undermine or destroy law." -- Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Mourning customs $z United States. 650 0 $a Law $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 7 $a Law $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993813 650 7 $a Mourning customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01028403 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Sarat, Austin, $e editor. 700 1 $a Douglas, Lawrence, $e editor. 700 1 $a Umphrey, Martha Merrill, $e editor. 830 0 $a Amherst series in law, jurisprudence, and social thought. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214014825.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=73270494EC6A11E7AF65C16E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
