Reflections on Complexity, Evidence, and Law
Abstract The pursuit of knowledge in many disciplines is undergoing a transformation from standard reductionist efforts popularly captured by “the scientific method” to embracing the framework of complexity theory and complex adaptive systems. That framework is invaluable to understand both the law of evidence and the nature of the American legal ...

On the basis of this analysis, I question Allen's criticism of the reductionist approach that, according to him, legal scholarship ...
