Abstract


Until recently, legal theory has presupposed that law is entirely the creation of institutionally-defined human subjects acting as legislators and judges, and as the conduit for social conventions that inform legal change. As one of several related narratives that challenge the nature-culture distinction, posthuman theory helps to reimagine law as the product of ecologically-connected legal subjects and, in consequence, as continuous with the normative processes of living and non-living nature.
