## Résumé

Information transmise par Fr. Audren:Baudouin Dupret(CNRS, France, and Centre Jacques-Berque, Rabat, Morocco)Adjudication in Action An Ethnomethodology of Law, Morality and Justice Oxford (UK), Ashgate Publications, nov. 2011, 374 p., ISBN:978-1-4094-3150-3, £60.00Présentation éditeur‘Based in the analysis of work, sequential organization and membership categorization in a collection of Egyptian legal proceedings including a trial for perversion and debauchery (homosexuality), Dupret gives us the most sustained attempt yet at a praxeology of judicial activity, re-specifying such legal objects as fact, person, intention, cause and judgement in relation to morality (above all), rationality, normality, language, context, rule, action, and text. It’s a remarkable tour de force.’  Peter Eglin, Wilfred Laurier University, Canada A rich, praxeological study that engages with ‘living law’ as it u nfolds in context and in action to develop a fuller understanding of what law is, Adjudication in Action engages with Wittgenstein’s later thought along with recent developments in ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, to explore people’s orientation around and reification of legal categories within the framework of institutional settings.
