La médecine légale s’ancre depuis longtemps dans les savoirs naturalistes et normatifs qui mettent en signes et sens judiciaires le corps meurtri. Connus des Romains selon le Digeste, en place dans les coutumiers médiévaux, imposés par la législation des États absolutistes dans les cas de grossesse illégitime, d’infanticide, d’empoisonnement et de blessures mortelles ou non, devenus routiniers et réglés par des Édits multipliés au temps des Lumières dans le cadre de la justice pénale, les savoirs médico-légaux s’imposent comme la médecine du crime. La médecine légale, qui s’est construite comme une science depuis le XIXe siècle entre la scène du crime, l’université, la morgue, le laboratoire et les cours de justice, a une histoire qui remonte à la Renaissance au moins. En atteste cet ouvrage constitué d’archives. Il donne à lire un corpus inédit d’environ 400 expertises médico-légales que signent au XVIIIe siècle à Genève des chirurgiens et des médecins assermentés en justice. Autour des enjeux judiciaires de l’expertise médico-légale qui limite l’arbitraire du juge, cette documentation permet d’historiciser la fabrique institutionnelle et sociale du savoir médico-légal sur le terrain du crime. L’investigation judiciaire et les expertises médico-légales qualifient et mesurent les conséquences morbides du passage à l’acte suicidaire ou criminel. Par l’objectivation naturaliste des plaies et des traumatismes, les experts mettent en indices judiciaires les corps meurtris.

African Asylum at a Crossroads: Activism, Expert Testimony, and Refugee Rights examines the emerging trend of requests for expert opinions in asylum hearings or refugee status determinations. This is the first book to explore the role of court-based expertise in relation to African asylum cases and the first to establish a rigorous analytical framework for interpreting the effects of this new reliance on expert testimony. Over the past two decades, courts in Western countries and beyond have begun demanding expert reports tailored to the experience of the individual claimant. As courts incre

Cultural expertise in the form of expert opinions formulated by social scientists appointed as experts in the legal process is not different from any other kind of expertise in court. In specialised fields of law, such as native land titles in America and in Australia, the appointment of social scientists as experts in court is a consolidated practice. This Special Issue focuses on the contemporary evolution and variation of cultural expertise as an emergent concept providing a conceptual umbrella for a variety of evolving practices, which all include use of the specialised knowledge of social sciences for the resolution of conflicts. It surveys the application of cultural expertise in the legal process with an unprecedented span of fields ranging from criminology and ethnopsychiatry to the recognition of the rights of autochthone minorities including linguistic expertise, and modern reformulation of cultural rights. In this Special Issue, the emphasis is on the development and change of culture-related expert witnessing over recent times, culture-related adjudication, and resolution of disputes, criminal litigation, and other kinds of court and out-of-court procedures. This Special Issue offers descriptions of judicial practices involving experts in local laws and customs and surveys of the most frequent fields of expert witnessing that are related with culture; interrogates who the experts are, their links with local communities, and also with the courts and the state power and politics; how cultural expert witnessing has been received by judges; how cultural expertise has developed across the sister disciplines of history and psychiatry; and eventually, it asks whether academic truth and legal truth are commensurable across time and space.
