Reviews for The Social Structure of Right and Wrong, Revised Edition
"Donald Black dramatically expands the scope of his work on law to the handling of conflict across a vast and diverse range of historical and cultural settings...The general paradigm he develops is applicable to an even broader range of issues in social science...His new work will continue to inspire further empirical research and theoretical work for years to come."
