Abstract

M is one of the most celebrated movies by Fritz Lang. Examining the movie as a ‘jurisprudential text’, the present article will explore three interconnected problems: how in modern mass society, the legal gaze works as a device that both traces and tracks the subject within the multitude; how the presence of a radical Other within our midst is troublesome for law and can turn society against itself in autoimmunitary fashion; and, finally, how the legal subject is prevented from speaking precisely by the legal procedures that are supposed to make them vocal, superimposing the legal truth over the truth of the Other.

弗里茨·朗的《M:我们中的另一个人》

《M》是弗里茨·朗最著名的电影之一。本文将电影作为一种“法学文本”进行考察，探讨三个相互关联的问题:在现代大众社会中，法律凝视如何作为一种工具，在大众中追踪和追踪主体;一个激进的他者在我们中间的存在如何给法律带来麻烦，并可能以自身免疫的方式使社会反对自己;最后，法律主体是如何被法律程序阻止准确地说话的，这些法律程序被认为是使他们发声的，将法律真理叠加在大他者的真理之上。
