18 -22 November 2024 - The Academy in Advanced Legal Research and Method (online, live)

Convened by the Transnational Association of Legal Scholars

Applications have now closed

The Transnational Association of Legal Scholars (TALS) is a group of legal scholars established in 2023, experienced in research, supervision, and interested in the conduct and method of research in law.

Our goal is to provide a short period of intensive training to a carefully selected group of 16 graduate students and early career legal researchers in the legal academic activities of research writing, careful reading, and effective academic communication. The focus will be on method, practical training and the cultivation of an ethos, rather than on providing schematic and critical overviews of different theories and approaches that currently constitute the field of legal research. Studying the membership of TALS will give applicants a sense of the general orientation of the Faculty. The workshop will be wholly online, and live (meaning synchronous, not recorded).

Preference will be given to legal scholars and doctoral students based in Universities in the Global South.

Dates and Times

The virtual workshop will run during the week of 18 - 22 November 2024 (Australian dates). Over that week, it will run for 18-20 hours.

Faculty

Core faculty will be drawn from the membership of the Transnational Association of Legal Scholars.
