Law and Society in a Populist Age

The most prevalent and shocking trend in recent global politics is the rise of populism and the corresponding crisis of faith among law-based democratic institutions. These seismic changes demand that greater attention be paid to the role society plays in forming and challenging laws - and how the law copes with these challenges. In Law and Society in a Populist Age, Amitai Etzioni - a leader in sociological thought since the 1960s - argues for a new liberal communitarian approach as an effective response to populism. Covering a broad set of concerns including national security, personal privacy, and freedom of the press, this book offers a timely investigation of the relationship between citizens and the law in our world today. --
