Elizabeth Mertz’s writing project on New Legal Realism challenges traditional Anglo-American jurisprudence from the vantage of interdisciplinary and transcultural work in social science. It draws on her previous anthropological linguistic research on the epistemology and language of U.S. law, as well as current work on the discourses of interdisciplinary translation.
