The Spaces of Mental Capacity Law

Moving Beyond Binaries

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the conceptual spaces and socio-legal context which mental capacity laws inhabit. It will be seen that these norms are created and reproduced through the binaries that pervade mental capacity laws in liberal legal jurisdictions- such as capacity/incapacity; autonomy/paternalism etc.
