Abstract: The depiction of law and war in popular legal culture forms the focus of this book. The authors are from a variety of academic fields of expertise, such as film studies, musicology, law, sociology of law and criminology. They analyse works of popular culture, place them into their context at the time of origin and discuss their meaning for today’s audiences. Law and war in film, television series, opera and pop music are investigated in the ten chapters of the book. Special emphasis lies on the role of the state in the context of law and war.
