Since the outset of his career, David Reed s central preoccupation has been to challenge and reinvent how to make a painting. Consistently, his paintings present a compelling tension between the gestural and the impersonal; in recent times this has been characterized by fluid, torquing, extended marks that reveal the viscosity of paint and the speed of colour and light in a flattened manner that looks photographic or filmic. David Reed documents the artist s 2020 exhibition of new work at Gagosian in New York, presenting 15 outsize paintings that, in many cases, were over a decade in the making. The plates are punctuated by striking details of several works. The artist s working drawings, which he has long made to document the many stages of a painting s creation, are illustrated throughout the plate section, offering insights into his varied sources and complex processes. A new essay by art historian Richard Shiff examines the emotional tenor of Reed s paintings.

What the Dust Doesn't Know

What the Dust Doesn't Know

Richard Schiffman

Salmon Poetry
2017
nidottu
Richard Schiffman's first full length collection of poetry, What the Dust Doesn't Know, examines our human place in a natural world, which is at once earthily familiar and stranger than we can possibly know. The author takes the reader on a provocative romp through a universe in which dogs preach theology, dragonflies are crucified, and birds offer critiques of modern life. Underlying the playful humor is a spiritual seriousness which perceives mystery and meaning lurking in experiences that are routinely undervalued. Through Schiffman's unconventional lens, pain becomes a gateway to illumination, imperfection is "heaven's backdoor," a grey day tells human beings to shine, and hope is "the present-- unlearning the past, agnostic of the future - breathing, in its chains, like the sea." This is a book for those who believe that poetry should both delight and inspire its readers with a larger sense of life's meaning and possibilities. Schiffman lives in New York City.

Understanding Miscarriages of Justice

Understanding Miscarriages of Justice

Richard Nobles; David Schiff

Oxford University Press
2000
sidottu
Understanding Miscarriages of Justice explores a paradox. In a society in which justice is uncertain and contested, how can we talk meaningfully about miscarriage of justice? The book examines the structural conditions that inevitably produce high-profile miscarriages of justice. The thesis of the book is that there is a tension between the rhetoric of justice as understood outside of law, particularly in the media, and legal practice. Despite evidence that miscarriages of justice must be a normal and expected consequence of imperfect arrangements for investigations, prosecutions, and trials, they are ordinarily understood as exceptional and unacceptable events. Periodically, however, miscarriages are seen not as exceptional, but widespread and normal. At such moments, the legitimacy of the criminal justice process is called into question in the media. These moments are constructed in the media as a crisis of public confidence in criminal justice. With the mass media's vivid interest in crime and punishment and their relentless reconstruction of relevant facts, the courts fact-finding monopoly is fundamentally contested. While this happens in all phases of a criminal process, the contest becomes particularly dramatic when after a criminal conviction the mass media continue their investigation and discover, according to their criteria of truth, a miscarriage of justice. But there is no set of common criteria that would allow for the design of rational procedures to end the contest. There is no forum, no procedure, and no set of criteria that would make possible a common search for truth.

Law, Society and Community

Richard Nobles; David Schiff

Routledge
2017
nidottu
This collection of socio-legal studies, written by leading theorists and researchers from around the world, offers original, perceptive and critical contributions to ideas and theories that have been expounded by Roger Cotterrell over a long and distinguished career. Engaging with many classic issues and theories of the sociology of law, the contributions are likely to become classics themselves as they tackle some of the most significant challenges that modern law faces. They do not shy away from what one of the contributors describes as the complexity and multiplicity of our contemporary legal world. The book is organized in three parts: socio-legal themes; methodological and jurisprudential themes; globalization, cultural and comparative law themes. Starting with a chapter that re-engages with the need to interpret legal ideas sociologically, and ending with one that explores the global significance of modern fascination with the idea of the rule of law, this selection offers important additions to the oeuvre of Roger Cotterrell (a list of whose academic writings is included in the book).

A Sociology of Jurisprudence

A Sociology of Jurisprudence

David Schiff; Richard Nobles

Hart Publishing
2006
nidottu
Niklas Luhmann's sociological theory treats law, along with politics, economics, media and ethics, as systems of communication. His theory not only offers profound and novel insights into the character of the legal system in modern society, but also provides an explanation for the role of jurisprudence as part of that legal system. In this work the authors seek to explore and develop Luhmann's claim that jurisprudence is part of law's self-description; a part of the legal system which, as a particular kind of legal communication, orientates legal operations by explaining law to itself. This approach has the potential to illuminate many of the interminable debates amongst and between different schools of jurisprudence on topics such as the origin and/or source of law, the nature of law's determinacy or indeterminacy, and the role of justice. The authors' introduction to Luhmann's systems theory concentrates on the concept of closure and the distinct disposition of law's openness to its environment. From this beginning, the book goes on to offer a sustained and methodical application of systems theory to some of the traditional forms of jurisprudence: natural law and its relationship with legal positivism, Dworkin's version of natural law, Kelsen's version of legal positivism, and Critical Legal Studies. This application of systems theory alters our perception of jurisprudence and better enables us to understand its role within law.

Observing Law through Systems Theory

Observing Law through Systems Theory

David Schiff; Richard Nobles

Hart Publishing
2012
nidottu
This book uses Niklas Luhmann's systems theory to explore how the legal system operates as one of modern society's subsystems.The authors demonstrate how this theory alters our understanding of some of the most important and controversial issues within law: the nature of judicial communication and legal argument; the claim that it can be right to disobey law; the character of legal pluralism and globalisation; time and its construction within law; the significance of the rule of law and human rights and the role of appeals to, and within, law.Systems theory enables the authors to demonstrate how the legal system observes its own operations through its own communications, and how this contrasts with the manner in which law is observed by other systems such as the media and politics.In this context the authors explore the constraints imposed by systems, in particular the legal system, upon the individuals who participate in them.

Ziviler Ungehorsam

Ziviler Ungehorsam

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Praktische (Ethik, sthetik, Kultur, Natur, Recht, ...), Note: 1,3, Humboldt-Universit t zu Berlin (Institut f r Philosophie), Veranstaltung: Ziviler Ungehorsam, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Begriff des zivilen Ungehorsams wird in den aktuellen politischen Debatten der deutschen Medien- und Wissenschaftslandschaft immer wieder von Politologen, Aktivisten, Parlamentariern, Gewerkschaftlern, Historikern und Journalisten herangezogen, wenn es darum geht, einen moralisch begr ndeten Regelbruch zu beschreiben oder auch politisch zu legitimieren. Werden die dabei teils eklatant voneinander abweichenden Definitionen ber cksichtigt, muss attestiert werden, dass der Begriff u erst inflation r verwendet wird. Zu den Protestbestrebungen der j ngeren Vergangenheit, die den westlichen Medien zufolge auf das Mittel des zivilen Ungehorsams zur ckgriffen, geh ren beispielsweise die Anti-Atom-Bewegung der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, der Arabische Fr hling oder auch die internationale Occupy-Bewegung. Der Begriff ist derart popul r, dass selbst die Jugendorganisation der Gewerkschaft Verdi ein Informationsheft zum Thema herausgegeben hat. Der Bundeszentrale f r politische Bildung zufolge erlebt die Formulierung "(...) in den vergangenen Jahren, insbesondere im deutschsprachigen Raum, eine Renaissance." Zu den Theoretikern, die sich um eine pr zise begriffliche Verortung der Formulierung bem hten, geh ren unter anderen Hannah Arendt, John Rawls, J rgen Habermas und auch Mohandas Gandhi. Nach allgemeiner Auffassung handelt es sich beim zivilen Ungehorsam um eine Protestform, die gezielt als ungerecht empfundene Verbote oder Gesetze missachtet, wobei auf Mittel der physischen Gewaltanwendung verzichtet wird. Dieser Gesetzesbruch wird von den Akteuren zudem moralisch begr ndet, wobei eine Bestrafung f r das entsprechende Vergehen akzeptiert wird.
