...an innovative collection of essays on the influential interchange between the law and television.Although generally accessible as a whole, the collection offers differing levels of legal discussion and analysis that make the content appealing to a broad audience.Appealing to legal and sociological academics and students alike, the book has a wide appeal for those interested in how popular culture interchanges with legal constructs and the conceptions of justice.Katherine MelnychukSaskatchewan Law ReviewVolume 76, 2013By raising questions which enact a thorough reflection on the fundamental issues in the shaping of popular legal culture, this volume allows its readers to approach the wide range of televised legal programmes with greater awareness, pointing out the important role that television continues to play in everyone's lives.Raffaele CutoloPOLEMOS - Journal of Law, Literature and CultureVolume 7(1)The authors impressed me in providing a more nuanced understanding of TV representations of a number of contemporary social problems, such as violence against women, racism and homophobia, in Australia and beyondThis is an important book for legal academics, students and practitioners who wish to explore the diverse impacts and 'meanings' of TV portrayals of legal matters in our society. More than that, the volume provides excellent teaching and learning material, raising many jurisprudential issues .

In limiting the chapters to law in literature - to predominately shows, especially the crime/lawyer drama, where the 'law' is immediately on the surface and to an analytical framework that focuses on this surface - there is a formal unity to the volume. This unity, the establishing of a mainstream core, is perhaps the true strength of the book." -- Griffith Law Review, Volume 22.

Synopsis
'Law and Justice on the Small Screen' is a wide-ranging collection of essays about law in and on television. In light of the book's innovative taxonomy of the field and its international reach, it will make a novel contribution to the scholarly literature about law and popular culture. Television shows from France, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain and the United States are discussed. The essays are organised into three sections: (1) methodological questions regarding the analysis of law and popular culture on television; (2) a focus on genre studies within television programming (including a subsection on reality television), and (3) content analysis of individual television shows with attention to big-picture jurisprudential questions of law's efficacy and the promise of justice. The book's content is organised to make it appropriate for undergraduate and graduate classes in the following areas: media studies, law and culture, socio-legal studies, comparative law, jurisprudence, the law of lawyering, alternative dispute resolution and criminal law. Individual chapters have been contributed by, among others: Taunya Banks, Paul Bergman, Lief Carter, Christine Corcos, Rebecca Johnson, Stefan Machura, Nancy Marder, Michael McCann, Kimberlianne Podlas and Susan Ross, with an Introduction by Peter Robson and Jessica Silbey., This is a wide-ranging collection of essays about law in and on television. In light of the book's innovative taxonomy of the field and its international reach, it will make a novel contribution to the scholarly literature about law and popular culture.
