Program Description:

Law is one of the most significant expressions of a modern society's social and political development. In recent years, social scientists from many disciplines have analyzed the interplay between law and society. We live in a period of widespread public interest in law that arises from a concern with problems of social justice, social control and deviance.

The academic disciplines - anthropology, economics, history, philosophy, political science, psychology, sociology - have increasingly focused on such issues as the nature and origin of law; law-making and law breaking; rights and obligations; freedom and responsibility. These are matters of increasing concern to teachers, social workers, businesspersons, doctors and public servants whose professional responsibilities demand a knowledge of the relationship of law to their own fields.

The goals of the Law and Society program are:

·         to affirm the intellectual importance of the study of law and society and law in society;

·         to provide a framework within which you and the faculty may explore, within disciplines and between them, descriptive and analytic approaches to the subject;

·         and to sharpen the appreciation of law as part of the active daily life of the student.
