I have hit the part of this 'where law meets theology and philosophy' course where we are at radical jurisprudence theories. So Derrida and Foucault have re-appeared in my life. I really never wanted to deal with them again.
Mind you, I always loathed dealing with Marxism too, and I survived that! Kind of helped that the lecturers take on it was 'stupid legal theory that wasn't a theory of law in any way shape or form. It was just mob rule'.
Wonder what he will make of Critical Legal Thories. I kind of like Unger so far, I will be fine with the feminist jurisprudence stuff (cause I always like Mill) but postmodernism is going to want to make me scream, and for the same reasons. You can't have a legal system with certainty if you can't agree on the meaning of things - and if you are arguing about whether reality is all in your head, you really can't have a sane agreement on how you will structure a legal system.
