Seminar Series Autumn 2017

 

The Law Research Centre at the School of Law and Government, DCU, hosts a socio-legal research seminar series through each academic term. Generally, this is a presentation from a researcher whose work goes beyond black-letter law and considers broader social, political or economic factors bearing upon particular legal questions. The seminars tend to be open and interactive: those present are not expected to be expert or even necessarily engaged in the field of scholarship addressed by the scholar or scholars presenting at the seminar. The concern is with enhancing understandings of socio-legal research and methodologies, as much as with engaging in substantive questions. The idea is that socio-legal researchers in different fields and at different stages of their research careers can share their work and experiences.
