World legal science, paradigmatic competitions, and empirical research

Article Abstract:

Boaventura de Sousa Santos' vision has power but requires complementary research. Scholars must study such areas as the connection of law and economics and also international law. Scholars must also do research in the internationalization of law and how this affects local legal systems. Moreover, a better understanding of law's unequal power could also be useful.

A prophecy of possibility: metaphorical explorations of postmodern legal subjectivity

Article Abstract:

It is to be hoped that humanity in the postmodern world can accept Boaventura de Sousa Santos' challenge. Santos wants us to identify with and empathize with the South or the victim to the extent that we almost become that victim. Postmodern legal subjectivity is an acceptance of plurality. Santos uses metaphor to explore this new world.
