What if Law Schools were actually about (social) justice?

Activity: Invited talk/public lecture/debate

Description

This paper offers a provocation to help us think about how Law Schools could be different. It takes as its starting point that Law Schools as spaces and law degrees as programmes have, whatever we might say, little to do with social justice. In doing so it acknowledges the neoliberal marketized world we operate in and tries to offer an alternative way of thinking about what we do and how we do it within that current context. It considers strategies of resistance and hope that we can all deploy without risking falling foul of institutional expectations and metrics an perhaps offers a way for us to revolutionise legal education from the inside.
