Abstract

David's approach is strongly interdisciplinary and incorporates comparative methods, psycho-analysis and socio-legal perspectives. He is focusing on a psycho-social 'reading' of 'figures' of institutions like head of states and judges, in a comparative perspective. He particularly questions the symbolic position of the judge, the signification of courts of justice designs, their relations to ritual(s) of justice and their 'effects' on the society.
