Morphogenesis and the Crisis of Normativity by Margaret S Archer

Morphogenesis and the Crisis of Normativity by Margaret S Archer

It starts out by describing the great normative transformations from morphostasis, as the precondition of a harmonious relationship between legal validity and normative consensus in society, to morphogenesis, which tends to strongly undermine existing laws, norms, rules, rights and obligations because of the new variety it introduces.
