In their responses, physicians protested by invoking their primary duty to provide care, the heightened vulnerability of undocumented patients, and the erosion of trust that such legislation would entail. In doing so, they rejected the intrusion of bureaucratic law, and what the social movement termed <i>Angiverilagen</i> (the ‘Snitch Law’), into clinical spaces, and instead oriented themselves towards the perceived moral compass of their profession.

This article examines Colombia's transitional justice system to explain the persistent exclusion of corporate responsibility. Drawing on Robert Cover's concepts of <i>nomos</i>, narrative, and polynomia, it shows how state‑centric transitional justice scriptures legitimize the omission of economic dimensions. Colombia's Special Jurisdiction for Peace provides a revealing case; though it leads globally in judicial actions involving businesses, most complicit corporations remain untouched. Linking local practices to the global transitional justice scripture, the article argues that an internationally standardized <i>nomos</i> narrows transitional justice into jurispathic, state‑centred practices that confine knowledge, privilege law over politics, and cast economic actors as neutral. These entrenched normative structures hinder the practical translation of the emerging scholarly ‘corporate turn’. Colombia's experience thus exposes both the potential and the structural limitations of integrating corporate accountability into post‑conflict justice.</p>","PeriodicalId":51544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Society","volume":"53 3","pages":"452-473"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.70078","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148943430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By examining original empirical data obtained during interviews with pathologists, I reveal a web of authority claims both within the profession and in its relationship to law. Drawing on the sociology of medicine, I note the importance of expert status to both the pathologist's identity and their contribution to law. This is constituted via a combination of trained technical skills and tacit knowledge. However, I note the ways in which these pathologists framed their conclusions as ‘opinion’. This, I argue, both reflects the ambiguity inherent in clinical judgement and is a device to limit credibility-damaging challenges, especially during legal adjudications. It may therefore be that a gap exists between law's desire for facts and the contribution that these professionals can, and are willing, to contribute towards achieving that end.</p>","PeriodicalId":51544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Society","volume":"53 3","pages":"474-495"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.70077","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148943539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While this right is often lauded as one of Welsh devolution's defining achievements, the efficacy of current protections is contested. This article contributes to the debate by focusing on the prison context, where the question of Welsh language rights is particularly complex. Drawing on interviews with Welsh-speaking former prisoners, stakeholders with experience of monitoring Welsh language provision in prison, and documentary analysis, we subject the ‘rights’ label to empirical scrutiny. We find implementation gaps in official policy across the Welsh prison estate, scepticism among former prisoners towards existing protections, and limited oversight. The article concludes that while Welsh-speaking prisoners may have ‘rights’ in a broad sense, these rights guarantee little in practice. Entirely contingent on the goodwill of prison authorities and weakened by constitutional complexity, they are a stark reminder of Welsh devolution's limited progress.</p>","PeriodicalId":51544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Society","volume":"53 3","pages":"568-590"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.70072","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148943444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The topic is of contemporary interest following the government's rejection of proposals to introduce a bespoke defence for domestic abuse victims who use force against their abusers based on the inaccurate claim that the defence of self-defence is adequately accessible to them. Evidence shows that the application of the self-defence framework by courts is highly gendered, and access to it is limited in these cases. We present findings of a study that asks the public whether the claim of self-defence would and should be available in a range of domestic abuse-based vignettes. These findings reveal both support for greater access to self-defence claims by domestic abuse victim-defendants than currently exists, and a need for public education about the dynamics of coercive and controlling behaviour.
