Law and Popular Culture : Text, Notes, and Questions, Hardcover by Papke, David; Corcos, Christine A.; Huang, Peter; Ledwon, Lenora; Menkel-Meadow, Carrie, ISBN 0769847536, ISBN-13 9780769847535, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US David Ray Papke (Marquette University Law School, Milwaukee, WI ), at the head of the list of eight authors, wrote the preface explaining the value of understanding the legal system as it is portrayed in popular culture. Film is the primary medium under consideration, but television, fiction, children's literature, and comics are given some attention. Each chapter is devoted to a legal actor (. lawyers, clients, witnesses); institution (. juries); or subject area (tort, criminal, constitutional, family, business, and international law). Each chapter considers five films and other material related to the theme, including excerpts from articles by law and popular culture scholars. The second edition changes the emphasis of the first, with more attention to reasons for and ramifications of law-related popular culture as compared to the first edition's emphasis on legal errors in popular culture and teaching the law using popular culture.
