This essay explores some of the key features of Vincenzo Tomeo’s Il giudice sullo schermo. This book can be regarded as a classic in the study of popular legal culture and, arguably, in the sociology of law more broadly. The essay begins with a brief overview of the historical and theoretical context that framed the research, particularly the crisis of the judiciary in 1960s Italy and the contribution of sociology of law to addressing it. It then examines the original methodology employed by Tomeo. Finally, it highlights what are considered to be the work’s most significant findings—insights that continue to resonate today and render its rediscovery particularly worthwhile.

Abstract
This essay explores some of the key features of Vincenzo Tomeo’s Il giudice sullo schermo. This book can be regarded as a classic in the study of popular legal culture and, arguably, in the sociology of law more broadly. The essay begins with a brief overview of the historical and theoretical context that framed the research, particularly the crisis of the judiciary in 1960s Italy and the contribution of sociology of law to addressing it. It then examines the original methodology employed by Tomeo. Finally, it highlights what are considered to be the work’s most significant findings—insights that continue to resonate today and render its rediscovery particularly worthwhile.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
