A Poststructuralist Analysis of the Legal Research Process

Jill Anne Farmer, Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, L.L.P.

Abstract

Revised version of winning paper in 1992 Open Division competition.

Ms. Farmer describes the role of epistemology in research in law and library science, arguing that while poststructuralist critiques have gained prominence in legal scholarship, poststructuralist approaches have been largely ignored in library science research. The potential benefits of post-structural analyses are presented.
