2017 Bergen Exchanges on Law & Social Transformation

Welcome to the 2017 Bergen Exchanges on Law & Social Transformation.

The Bergen Exchanges on Law & Social Transformation is a meeting place for scholars and practitioners who seek to understand how law serves as an instrument of change and how it shapes, and is shaped by power relations. During a week of public discussions, we examine strategic uses of rights and law and how legal institutions function as arenas for political contestation (lawfare). The multi-disciplinary and international nature of the Bergen Exchanges makes it a unique space for improving research strategies and methods to grasp the effects of law & lawfare.

When: 21st – 25th of August
Where: Bergen Resource Centre for International Development (Jekteviksbakken 31, 5007 Bergen) unless otherwise stated.
