The Sixth International Round Table on Law and Semiotics, sponsored and organized by The Center for Semiotic Research in Law, Government and Economics , convened April 29, 30, May 1, 2, 1992, at Penn State-Berks. Under the general topic, Flux, Complexity, Illusion , special sessions on the following topics resulted in this wide-ranging collection of papers: Legal Semiotics Theory; Law and Literature; Law and Economics: Intertexts in Legal Semiotics; Codification, Custom and Legal Norms. These papers represent interdisciplinary inquiry that explores the assumptions that a) law is a complex sign-system which dialogically interacts with other social organizations; b) law is an indeterminate and open-ended concept in both theory and practice that contributes to the process of creating and affirming social values; and c) all sign-systems are self-correcting and self-directing.
