Half Day Workshop:  'Mapping Law Globally' 13 May 2015 - 3:00 - 6:30pm Room 313, Law Building, School of Law, Queen Mary University of London, Mile End Road, London E1 4NS Hosted by the  Centre for Law and Society in a Global Context  (CLSGC).  This seminar considers the spatial dimensions of legal processes and the (dis)orderly aspects of geographical processes as we discuss land title registration systems, the world’s first factory and public billboards.  By participating in this conversation between geography and law, we hope for further critical consideration of the racist effects of liquefying land, the different legal mechanisms of industrial place-making, and the role of judicial ‘space-talk’ in constituting public spheres.    Chair Dr Ruth Fletcher , Queen Mary University of London Programme 3-4pm:  Making Land Liquid: Race, Time and Title Registration Author:  Sarah Keenan , Birkbeck University of London Commentator:  Simon Reid...

Colloque pluridisciplinaire international ARBITRAGE ET RELIGION Université de Strasbourg, le 7 juillet 2016

Normative Pluralism and Human Rights

Normative Pluralism and Human Rights Social Normativities in Conflict Edited by Kyriaki Topidi The complex legal situations arising from the coexistence of international law, state law, and social and religious norms in different parts of the world often include scenarios of conflict between them. These conflicting norms issued from different categories of ‘laws’ result in difficulties in describing, identifying and analysing human rights in plural environments.  This volume studies how normative conflicts unfold when trapped in the aspirations of human rights and their local realizations. It reflects on how such tensions can be eased, while observing how and why they occur. The authors examine how obedience or resistance to the official law is generated through the interaction of a multiplicity of conflicting norms, interpretations and practices. Emphasis is placed on the actors involved in raising or decreasing the tension surrounding the conflict and the implications that the co...
