Nonhuman Law Research Group, Newcastle

Active

Description

The Nonhuman Law Research Group, based in Newcastle Law School, Newcastle University, focuses on a variety of issues pertaining to human and nonhuman inequalities. It is specifically interested in how nonhuman entities, such as nonhuman animals, the environment, machines and technology, but also other nonhuman subjects such as the state and the corporation, are represented in law. The group also focuses on how multiple vectors of oppression, such as gender, race, coloniality, class and ableism, play out in the law. It does not have a focus on one specific area of law and is open to all staff and postgraduate research students. It reports a mailing list, a newsletter and regular events, often hybrid.
