The potential of LLMs for constructing a socio‐legal knowledge graph
Comparative Sociolegal Trajectories
This review offers a methodology for the comparative analysis of different sociolegal research cultures by tracing the distinct trajectories of their scholarly communities and academic traditions. Drawing on sociolegal studies and the sociology and history of science, we examine both microsociological (individual) and macrosociological (structural) dimensions to reveal how historical contingencies, institutional dynamics, and personal scholarly p…
The Journal of Law and Society in context
On this, the occasion of its 50 th anniversary, we employ a quantitative analysis of the Journal of Law and Society ( JLS ) to chart empirically the evolution of socio‐legal studies in the United Kingdom (UK). By tracing the influence(s) of the JLS upon the development of UK socio‐legal research, not only do we demonstrate a new mode of exploring knowledge production in the field of socio‐legal studies, but we also illustrate how computational me…

Socio-Legal Studies in Germany and the UK

The contributions are grouped into three themes. The first reflects upon the influence of institutional co…

In the context of the encounter of UK and German socio-legal studies in this issue, this Article develops preliminary thoughts on a research agenda for the comparative interdisciplinary empirical study of legal doctrine. Based on a working definition of doctrine as an institutionally legitimized practice of making statements on the law, it presents an overview of sociological and comparative theorizing about doctrine in Germany, and of the data a…

After centuries during which capital punishment was a normal and self-evident part of criminal punishment, it has now taken on a life of its own in various arenas far beyond the limits of the penal sphere. In this volume, the authors argue…
