Reply to Critics

In my reply to critics I address a raft of issues raised by the commentators to Fault Lines of Globalization. These issues include: the radicalization of the Husserlian concept of intentionality as differance; the irreducibility of a-legality to (il) legality; the relation between legal orders and society; legal pluralism; the relation between power and place; contingency and modernity; fear and terrorism; differences and similarities between a discourse theory of law and the approach developed in the book; the incorporation of the findings of social theory into an account of law as authoritative collective action.
