Wall to Wall: Law as Culture in Latin America and Spain
Co-edited by Ana Yáñez Rodríguez, lecturer in Spanish within MIT Global Languages
Vernon Press · 2021
In this collection, a wide array of scholars based in the U.S., Spain, and Latin America explore the encounter of Hispanophone cultures and the law. Contributors delineate a fraught relationship of complicity, negotiation, and outright confrontation covering five centuries and a global landscape.
From Summer 2021 recommended reading from MIT (MIT News).
