Hellmann, Jenny: Trauma, Kollektivgefühle und das RechtTransitional Justice in Argentinien
Emotions permeate social life in all its areas. This also applies to law, especially in the context of human rights and the reappraisal of state injustice. The author examines the emotive permeation of law in the context of transitional justice using the recent criminal justice process of dealing with the dictatorship's past in Argentina. The focus is on collective emotional dynamics that have unfolded in the social and legal reappraisal in the field of tension between effervescent collective feelings, the rational logics of law, and its nonetheless "sacred" aura. The starting point for the empirical examination is the documentary film "Algo mío - Argentina's Stolen Children," which has won several awards and is included with the book. It expresses the ambivalences of an emotive theory of the transitory criminal process in impressive images and captivating stories.

Herdegen, Matthias: The Dynamics of International Law in a Globalised WorldCosmopolitan Values, Constructive Consent
"Möglicherweise macht es Herdegen jungen Studenten mit seinem interdisziplinären "Völkerrecht der Globalisierung" nicht gerade einfach; den Völkerrechtspraktikern, die gezwungen sind, mit neuen Entwicklungen, auch der Globalisierung umzugehen, hat er einen Riesendienst erwiesen. Sie werden es ihm zu danken wissen!"

In the Realm of Corona NormativitiesA Momentary Snapshot of a Dynamic Discourse
This volume shows the results a cultural studies perspective on the pandemic crisis may yield in the light of the law-as-culture paradigm. The diversity of the disciplines practiced at the Käte Hamburger Kolleg "Law as Culture" as well as the internationality of its fellows and fellow campaigners contribute to directing the normative and legal analysis developed at the Kolleg towards phenomena which at the same time provide us with a unique laboratory for the "condition humaine".

Isensee, Josef: HermeneutikStudien über den Umgang der Jurisprudenz mit Normtexten im Vergleich zur biblischen Theologie und zur Literaturwissenschaft
Hermeneutics is the art of understanding foreign meaning and communicating it to others in words. The present studies take their point of departure from juridical hermeneutics and compare them with biblical theology and literary studies. They all depend on understanding given texts and interpreting them. But only laws and biblical messages, authoritative texts that is, can be applied and have a planned effect on the life world. Possibilities of this kind are foreign to the "beautiful" texts of poetry. They follow their own aesthetic legality. The identical text can keep open different possibilities of interpretation. These, however, are not unlimited. Hermeneutics is oriented towards truth. But this is the truth about the given text, which is independent of whether the text itself is true or not.

Law and the ArtsElective Affinities and Relationships of Tension
The collected contributions discuss the structural relationships and contradictions of law and the arts with the aim of bringing the spheres closer to each other again. The plea is therefore that the reciprocal potential for insight be better utilized not only through conceptualization, aesthetic reflection, and sensory appraisals, but also through aesthetic practice. Thus, this volume takes a look beyond the classical subject matter of law and literature and incorporates the increasing interest for visual cultures, yet also encourages new fields of research that relate to the hidden relationship between law and music as well as the colorfulness of law and law as sculpture.

Recht als Kultur? Beiträge zu Max Webers Soziologie des RechtsHrsg. von Werner Gephart und Daniel Witte
Much has already been said and written about the part of Max Weber’s Wirtschaft und Gesllschaft that has become known as "legal sociology". However, the edition of the texts in the context of the historical-critical Gesamtausgabe, which is now available, and the insights gained in the editing work give cause to question established interpretations as well as to put new interpretations of these multi-layered texts up for debate. Thus, these texts already contain approaches to a pluralism of normative orders, and Weber also emphasizes the cultural dimension as a difference in the legal systems in a way that still seems significant for observations of contemporary societies and their images of identity. This volume brings together contributions that have been written against this background and in the course of a renewed examination of Weber's writings on law.
