Bringing together diverse yet overlapping strands in the study of law with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinarity and critical theoretical analysis. The focus of the Lab's activities is firmly placed on the link between the
applied and the theoretical. The Lab seeks to facilitate common scholarly
activities and projects, thus acting as a bridge between the applied and the
theoretical, and pro
viding a supportive context within which radical new research
can flourish. Drawing on the strengths of the Westminster Law School in
the areas of international law, governance, sociology, economics, geography,
human rights and legal theory, the Lab encourages collaboration both at a
national and international level, through public guest lectures, open fora such
as conferences, workshops and seminars, internships, guest-invitations, and
on-line publications, which draw together established academics,
young researchers, practitioners, activists and international research networks.
