Abstract:

The book approaches law from the legal-linguistic perspective. Its aim is to
clarify the processes in which the meaning of law emerges in legal discourses.
In order to enable the understanding of law as a discursive practice,
professional and non-professional discourses are analyzed. With this aim in
mind, the author focuses on the epistemological consequences of the
discursiveness of law. Other relevant legal-linguistic operations such as
legal interpretation or legal translation are scrutinized in terms of their
theoretical prerequisites and their practical consequences. Their analysis
also shows the potential and the limits of law as a social and as a linguistic
phenomenon that is determined by its discursiveness. Finally, the book
demonstrates how the discursiveness as the distinctive feature of law
establishes the connection between the science of law and other social
sciences.
