IN A CORRUPT CAMPAIGN, ONLY BULLETS COUNT AS VOTES AGAINST TERROR. In the streets of America's most violent city, the radical FLNA continues a ruthless campaign against freedom. Their "law-and-order" candidate for mayor is backed by an international syndicate doing a billion-dollar business in drugs and guns. Only David Holden and his Patriots have the guts-and the grit-to stand in their way. When the FLNA savagely attacks a member of the Special Task Force and kidnaps another, it's meant as a deadly warning. But for Holden and his freedom fighters there's no turning back.

This book examines the paved road as a liminal space and legal frontier for enlivened, everyday struggles over property, power, and place/definition. Through pavement itself and the pavement-based practices of pavementalities and pavementeering, the road is legally framed as a place for movement. Paved terrain is a site of dynamism between law and place that engenders the road as legal metaphor by calling forth the kinetic notion of jurisprudence in which law can be understood through the fluidity of everyday life. In Western (and particularly American) society, roads are a material locus of governance, in which rights of way are determined, communicated, and enforced. However, roads also constitute a site of resistance or disruption, beyond regulation. Addressing phenomena such as travel, political protest, public memory, and community governance, this book explores the paved medium of asphalt as a complex surface for legality that constitutively frames order against disorder involving jurisdiction tensions, property ownership, and cultural identities in vehicular environments. The target audience of this book are those students and scholars who consider how law works in society, whether through frameworks of (auto) mobility and legal geography or through the interdisciplinary approaches of legal semiotics, legal culture, and/or new materialism.
