TechNomos: Law, Technology, Culture is a new book series publishing culturally informed critical accounts of law and technology. It is where the cultural imaginary that binds law and technology can be directly examined, probed, integrated and celebrated. Books in this series draw upon the humanities, cultural legal studies, science and technology studies, sociology, anthropology and related disciplines to delineate how law, technology and culture intertwine and are multi-generative. Focusing not only on technologies causing contemporary legal, political and ethical concern, but also past technologies and their constitutive and respondent legalities, books in the series are aimed at anyone keen to understand and to dream how law and technology have made, and continue to make, the world.
We invite proposals for edited collections, monographs or short books. And if you would like to discuss a proposal for the series, please contact the series editors.
