The Comparative Law Discussion Group group meet a few times a term to discuss comparative research and methodology. This year the group is expanding a little to welcome LLMs and particularly interested undergraduates in addition to the PhD students and faculty members who attend. It is not a teaching forum, its focus is on substantive research and research methodology. There are substantive presentations at points in the year, led by established academics, but for the rest of the year everyone is encouraged to present comparative work in progress and discuss it with the group. All are welcome here is no need to book.
