Course summary
Loughborough Law staff offer world-leading expertise in law and social and global justice. We bring a critical approach to researching law’s effects on people, communities and cultures. Our findings shape academic knowledge and legal reform both within the United Kingdom and internationally. Our transformative socio-legal research leads academic debate and advances cutting-edge solutions to social and global problems. We are renowned for advancing interdisciplinarity, animating and deepening traditional legal research with methods and perspectives from sociology, criminology, history, political economy, environmental studies, philosophy and anthropology. We focus on situating law and legal reform within a wider social and political analysis and combine attention to the letter of the law with awareness of law’s role in perpetuating inequalities or challenging oppression.
