Jacques COMMAILLE - Juridical Order as Political Disorder

Pouvoirs n°94 - L’État-providence - septembre 2000 - p.75-86

In the present context of recomposition of the State, a few obervations about the politics of law and justice illustrate some of the changes that are occuring in public action while at the same time highlighting the basic contradiction the latter has to face, i.e. a contradiction between the new nature of social problems and the nostalgia for the representation of an all-powerful state. Faced with such a contradiction, politics proves unable to think and promote a different form of state action. Résumé
