The Cambridge Socio-Legal Group is an interdisciplinary discussion forum promoting debate on topical socio-legal issues and empirical research methodology. It is affiliated with several departments across the University, including the Faculty of Law, the Institute of Criminology, the Centre for Family Research and Physiology, Development & Neuroscience (PDN). The Group serves to bring together people from within Cambridge and farther afield from different disciplines, including Law, Criminology, POLIS, Sociology, Psychology, Psychiatry, PDN, Biology, Economics, History and Social Anthropology. The Socio-Legal Group provides a focus for those in the University and beyond who are engaged in socio-legal research and supports collaborative, inter-disciplinary work through its various activities, in particular its workshop and book projects.
We strongly encourage everyone with an interest in socio-legal issues to subscribe to our mailing list for news of our work.
