Bücher von Jonathan (University of Oxford) Herring

This book is the first to explore the interactions of the law with the life course in order to understand the complex life journey as a whole. Jonathan Herring reveals how the law privileges "middle age" to the detriment of the whole life story and explains why an understanding of the life course is important for lawyers.

This book argues that the most important thing to people and society is relationships, although the law emphasises individual rights and interests. The book offers a profound challenge to individualist ways of understanding the law and offers a new radical relational approach.
