Time, Temporality and Legal Judgment is the most recent contribution to what its author Tanzil Chowdhury describes as the ‘nascent “temporal turn” in socio-legal studies, legal anthropology and jurisprudence’ (2020: 145). Chowdhury is correct that socio-legal scholars have increasingly turned their attention to time and have begun to offer a range of new ways to understand law, legal processes, institutions and discourses through this lens (Beynon-Jones and Grabham, 2018; Grabham, 2016; Keenan, 2013; McNeilly, 2019; Mawani, 2014). This work has revealed a variety of ways in which law produces time and how legal times connect to the social (Greenhouse, 1989). Chowdhury’s contribution to this growing literature is to place focus on adjudication – specifically within the field of criminal law – and render visible the temporal building blocks that provide the foundations of this juridical practice. The book lies at the intersection of multiple bodies of thought, which are woven together in a complex and enlightening way. These bodies include not only law and time literature but also theories of adjudication and a variety of philosophical literature on time. The result is an approach that makes a stimulating new contribution to advance socio-legal thinking on time, as well as offering insights in the wider fields of criminal law, adjudication, and jurisprudence.

书评

时间，临时性和法律判断这是对其作者坦齐尔·乔杜里（Tanzil Chowdhury）所称的“最新的社会法律研究，法律人类学和法学的“暂时性转向”（2020：145）。乔杜里（Chowdhury）的观点是正确的，社会法学学者越来越多地将注意力转移到时间上，并开始通过这种视角提供一系列新的方式来理解法律，法律程序，制度和话语（Beynon-Jones and Grabham，2018; Grabham，2016 ；基南（Keenan），2013年；麦克尼利（McNeilly），2019年；马瓦尼（Mawani），2014年）。这项工作揭示了法律产生时间以及法律时间如何与社会联系的各种方式（Greenhouse，1989）。乔杜里（Chowdhury）对这部日益壮大的文学的贡献在于将重点放在审判上-特别是在刑法领域内-并使提供这种司法实践基础的时间构造块可见。这本书位于多个思想体系的交汇处，这些思想体系以复杂而富有启发性的方式编织在一起。这些机构不仅包括法律和时间文献，还包括审判理论和有关时间的各种哲学文献。其结果是，这种方法为促进按时推进社会法律思考做出了令人振奋的新贡献，并在刑法，审判和法学等更广泛的领域中提供了见识。这些机构不仅包括法律和时间文献，还包括审判理论和有关时间的各种哲学文献。其结果是，这种方法为促进按时推进社会法律思考做出了令人振奋的新贡献，并在刑法，审判和法学等更广泛的领域中提供了见识。这些机构不仅包括法律和时间文献，还包括审判理论和有关时间的各种哲学文献。其结果是，这种方法为促进按时推进社会法律思考做出了令人振奋的新贡献，并在刑法，审判和法学等更广泛的领域中提供了见识。
