Workshop: “Doing” socio-legal research
A LatAm-European ECR methodological workshop, 14 April 2025, Liverpool
What?
This workshop aims to bring together early-career researchers from socio-legal communities in LatAm and Europe to engage in shared discussions of methods and methodologies.
Hosted by the University of Liverpool Law School, the workshop is part of a larger collaborative network led by Dr. Michael Ashworth (Newcastle, UK), Dr. Rachel Pougnet (Max Planck Institute for the Study of Crime, Security and Law, Germany), and Dr. Ignacio Riquelme Espinosa (Social Science Institute, Universidad de O’Higgins, Chile).
For this closed workshop, we have invited 14 ECRs from LatAm and Europe to present 15 minute papers on any methodological theme.
We interpret methodology broadly, so as to encompass themes such as, but not limited to:
- research methods,
- research ethics,
- epistemology,
- ontology,
- positionality,
- theoretical/conceptual frameworks and their links to methodological orientations,
- reflections on challenges arising from “doing” socio-legal research.
The workshop will run from 09:30 to 17:30. Coffee and light snacks are provided.
