CULJP Digital Discussions: Teaching Law & Society
The Consortium is excited to launch a new Digital Discussions workshop series in 2023 on teaching law and society. Each live webinar features several scholars discussing specific strategies for teaching undergraduate courses on interdisciplinary topics relating to law, power, and culture in both US and international contexts. The moderated discussion is followed by a Q&A session with the audience and then archived on YouTube for later viewing.
We hope to offer Digital Discussions on timely topics such as racism, police brutality, and the future of policing; judicial power and reproductive rights post Dobbs; crimmigration law and policy; legal mobilizations for human rights; and climate change and environmental justice as well as enduring topics such as social movements for social change; law, pluralism, and legal anthropology; law and society through film; and introduction to law and society.
The CULJP Digital Discussions committee is chaired by Haley Duschinski <duschins@ohio.edu>. Please reach out if you would like to participate in a future discussion!
