Law and the Rise of Capitalism by Michael E. Tigar
Against a backdrop of seven hundred years of bourgeois struggle, eminent lawyer and educator, Michael E. Tigar, develops a Marxist theory of law and jurisprudence based upon the Western experience. This well-researched and documented study traces the role of law and lawyers in the European bourgeoisie’s conquest of power — the first such history in the English language — and in the process, complements the analyses of such major figures as R.H. Tawney and Max Weber.
