Summary/Abstract: Until now, all of the diverse and valuable contributions to the Marxist theory of law have been scattered across the academic landscape. The article is a most timely overview of the theory of law. It brings together a vision of the classical tradition before attending to a comprehensive survey of recent contributions to what has become an increasingly diversified field. It lays the basis for a fruitful engagement between these different strands. The author hopes that this article can contribute to building a truly interdisciplinary approach to the analysis of law in its varied manifestations by having clarified, and thereby uncovered the value of, the disciplinary contours of law.
