Description:
Legal geography explores the practice and conceptualization of the law in and via place and space, examining the relationship between law and the changing spatial, social, and environmental conditions that create and contribute to our understanding of the world(s) we inhabit. We welcome all graduate student scholars who pursue research that involves legal inquiry-whether you consider yourself a 'spatial detective' (Bennett 2015), a transdisciplinary/post-disciplinary scholar (Braverman et al. 2014), or are simply interested in the utility of legal geography as a subdiscipline for supporting your work. We invite scholarship on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to migration & immigration, policing, human rights, law and racism, indigenous law, environmental & climate justice, property and resource management, food policy, the administration of law in place, law and urban spaces, law and bodies, and law and COVID-19.
