Résumé :

The chapter questions the prerequisites of socio-legal identifications. This question is addressed through three vignettes: a short autobiographical reflection about my trajectory and research, an examination of the limits of socio-legal identifications and a discussion of the emergence of socio-legal studies in Israel. Throughout these sections, I reflect on how the presence of the law, as a matter, may determine disciplinary belongings, claiming that, unlike other matters, concepts and theories that travel between disciplines without necessarily restricting disciplinary identities, law – regardless of the approach one adopts towards it – tends to be more imposing. At a time when the law is no longer the sole domain of legal scholars or law departments, it still claims its authority and resists interdisciplinary and anti-disciplinary work.
