Based on interviews with current and former employees of betting shops in the United Kingdom, and analysis of the legal and regulatory structures that shape the post-Gambling Act betting shop, we propose a new reading of the concept of ‘regulatory labour’ to understand these tensions. Our analysis shows the urgent need to look beyond current depictions of neoliberal deregulation; regulatory frameworks focused on harm reduction themselves generate new forms of harm, undermining existing forms of relational labour and enabling operators to offload the risks of gambling harm onto their lowest-paid employees while also expanding their powers of surveillance over both staff and customers.","PeriodicalId":51544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Society","volume":"52 4","pages":"580-605"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.70026","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145699049","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}

Nonetheless, disparities arise in access to the benefits of debt relief offered by insolvency law. In a context of geographical inequality and local gaps in access to justice, our original empirical study explores the substantial variation in personal insolvency rates across English local authority districts (LADs) – both in terms of total personal insolvencies, and of the proportion of insolvencies composed of longer-term, expensive repayment plans (individual voluntary arrangements (IVAs)) compared to rapid debt discharge procedures (bankruptcy and debt relief orders). Our model explains much of the local variation in total insolvencies and finds higher insolvency rates in LADs with lower median income levels. Crucially, however, economic variables do not explain local variation in the proportion of insolvencies composed of IVAs. Despite IVAs being designed for higher-income ‘can pay’ debtors, the IVA proportion is higher in LADs with lower median income levels. These findings imply that IVAs are not ‘rationally sorted’ based on economic conditions and add important evidence to the case for reforming personal insolvency law to address apparent inefficiencies and unfairness.","PeriodicalId":51544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Society","volume":"52 4","pages":"606-627"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.70030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145698956","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}

Previous research has highlighted contextual opportunities and constraints, resources, and traditions as explanations for the use of legal tactics. Using frame analysis, the study examines how movement actors interpret the factors that shape their tactical choices. The findings suggest that several explanations often interrelated in influencing specific choices, underscoring the importance of exploring movement actors’ motivations holistically. The movement's internal multi-organizational field emerged as a novel explanatory factor. Actors adapted to the tactics and roles of others in the movement, resulting in a division of labour where some specialized in public protest and others in legal mobilization. Future research should attend to movement actors’ situational interpretations and internal movement dynamics when seeking to understand the use of legal mobilization in social movements.","PeriodicalId":51544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Society","volume":"52 4","pages":"650-676"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.70029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145699001","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}
