| 要約: | Visa Kurki’s A Theory of Legal Personhood offers a sustained, and in some ways exhaustive, account of the legal being. It also strives to consider ‘the person’ afresh and to pay close and critical attention to how the concept has developed and operated over two millennia, right up to the twenty-first century. And yet it remains an intriguing blend of innovative and traditional thinking. Though it sets out to challenge legal orthodoxy, and does so in a number of important ways, the book is itself orthodox in at least one important respect. Simply put, in its analysis of the concept of the person, it tends to assume a male subject. |
