Critical theory and legal autopoiesis: The case for societal constitutionalism (Critical Theory and Contemporary Society)

Are you ready to delve into the complex world of societal constitutionalism? Introducing "Critical Theory and Legal Autopoiesis: The Case for Societal Constitutionalism," a groundbreaking book by Gunther Teubner. This captivating volume is a culmination of Teubner's extensive research and thought-provoking essays over the past two decades. As one of the world's foremost sociologists of law, Teubner challenges traditional assumptions about law and society, offering a fresh perspective that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew.

Teubner's exploration centers around the notion of functional differentiation. In his essays, he carefully examines the often-overlooked 'dark side' of this process and considers the potential remedy in the form of societal constitutionalism. Drawing upon the profound insights of renowned thinkers like Niklas Luhmann, Jacques Derrida, and select examples of modernist literature, Teubner urges us to redefine our understanding of law and justice in the context of late modernity.

Gone are the days of rigid argumentation and analytical philosophy as the sole foundations for fundamental democratic concepts. Teubner boldly asserts that we must embrace a paradigm shift, embracing notions of contingency and self-subversion instead. Autopoiesis and deconstruction become the guiding principles in this new framework, challenging traditional notions of legal and political coherence.
