Seminar: Theory and Performance Studies; Performativity of Law and Justice

Crosslisted with ANTH468V. Credit only granted for THET408L or ANTH468V. Law is theatre, sport, and business. True stories are creatively told to select audiences and stakes are high.

We will examine notions of truth, evidence, reason, and justice, and will analyze examples from both the everyday and the sensational.
