[En anglais seulement] Some questions addressed in this special issue include: How are notions of justice informed by sensory models? What values does the design and atmosphere of the courtroom uphold? What kinds of sensory experiences can be taken into account as evidence? What is the role of silence in judicial proceedings? Can there be property in sensations such as colours or textures? How is the force of law mediated by the senses in the prison, or on the street (e.g. among the homeless)? How do some odours and sounds come to be considered as offences against the public sensorium? How do Indigenous cultural traditions challenge and suggest alternatives to the sensory assumptions of the Western legal system?
A number of contributors to the special issue will be present to present their work in brief 20-minute talks: David Howes (Sociology & Anthropology, Concordia / Faculty of Law, McGill); Mark Antaki (Faculty of Law, McGill); Charlene Elliott (Communication & Culture, Calgary); Sheryl Hamilton (Journalism & Communication / Law & Legal Studies, Carleton); and Christiane Wilke (Law & Legal Studies, Carleton).
