NLS Methodologies Symposium

At Newcastle Law School, we have a history of engaging law and legal methodologies through diverse approaches, including doctrinal, critical, socio-legal, interdisciplinary and heterodox.

To mark the creation of our new research group focused on legal methods and methodologies, we are holding a symposium inspired by W.H Auden's poem Law, Like Love, where we will be exploring and discussing the ways we can approach legal research and think beyond the discipline/disciplining of legal thought and law. Accepted presentations will have the opportunity to be published papers in a special issue of the North East Law Review in 2026.
