The Thinker

Jointly convened by 果冻影院 Laws鈥 Professor George Letsas and Professor Scott Shapiro from Yale Law School, the Yale-果冻影院 Workshop in Legal Philosophy will feature work in progress presented by researchers from both universities, as well as invited speakers from other institutions.

The workshop series will run on an annual basis for an initial period of three years, and will comprise six seminars over the year, hosted equally between Yale and 果冻影院.

Professor of the Philosophy of Law,聽聽said: 鈥淚 am really excited about the Yale-果冻影院 workshop. Yale and 果冻影院 are very similar in their inter-disciplinary approach to legal scholarship and the value they place on philosophical theorising about law.

The exchange of ideas between the two sides of the Atlantic has benefited jurisprudence enormously in the past and can help make progress in understanding the more complex role that law plays in the contemporary world.鈥

This year鈥檚 programme for the Yale-果冻影院 Workshops include papers by Oona Hathaway and Scott Shapiro (Yale), Amia Srinivasan (果冻影院 Philosophy), Seth Lazar (Australian National University),聽听补苍诲听聽(果冻影院 Laws), and Gideon Yaffe (Yale).
