Access to Justice among the Rural Poor in Minnesota and Wisconsin

题目：农村穷人诉诸司法穷人往往得不到法律的服务。民事法律的援助向穷人提供一些法律的服务，但通常不足以满足他们的法律的需要。 此外，这些人可能不会寻求司法救助，因为他们可能不知道他们的纠纷本质上是法律的，或者因为他们不知道他们可以获得法律的帮助。 该项目对明尼苏达州北方和威斯康星州的农村贫困人口进行人种学研究，目的是审查这些人对诉诸司法的概念，并了解这些人为什么通常不寻求法律的服务。通过对农村贫穷问题采取广泛的跨学科办法，该项目从法律和社会的角度以及对法律的宣传和法律的动员的社会法律的研究来处理关于法律的动员的理论问题。该项目将探讨在明尼苏达州和威斯康星州农村贫困的独特背景下，贫困，宣传和政策的复杂交叉点。方法学方法包括观察、档案和法律的分析以及访谈。这种持续、多地点和多样化的方法将对农村诉诸司法的机会进行严格和比较性的考虑。

Title: Access to Justice Among the Rural PoorIndividuals who are poor often do not have access to legal services. Civil legal aid provides some legal services to poor individuals, but usually not enough to meet their legal needs. As well, these individuals may not seek access to justice because may not be aware that their disputes are legal in nature, or because they are not aware they may have access to legal help. This project engages in an ethnographic study of the rural poor in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin, as it seeks to examine this population's conceptions of access to justice, and to understand why these individuals usually do not pursue legal services. By engaging in a broad range of interdisciplinary approaches on rural poverty, this project addresses theoretical issues on legal mobilization from the perspective of law and society as well as socio-legal studies of legal advocacy and legal mobilization. The project will explore the complex intersections of poverty, advocacy, and policy in the distinct context of the rural poor in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Methodological approaches include observation, archival and legal analyses, and interviews. This sustained, multi-sited and diverse methodological approach will provide a rigorous and comparative consideration of rural access to justice.
