Law and Interdisciplinarity: Thinking Beyond Borders - Milwaukee

April 23, 2010toApril 24, 2010

The Center for International Education, University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, presents Law and Disciplinarity: Thinking Beyond Borders April 23-24, 2010.

In the twenty-first century, traditional legal borders – geographic and intellectual – have been increasingly contested. Many observers have questioned whether the long-held conception of sovereign state boundary remains salient in a world of technology-accelerated trans-boundary flows of people, capital, and information. Meanwhile, in unprecedented ways, scholars with training in anthropology, critical theory, communication, ethics, economics, history, information sciences, media studies, sociology, political science, and law have begun crossing disciplinary borders to use each other’s tools and to engage in meaningful and sustained dialogue about “law” in its dramatically changing global context. What are the nature and implications of these two shifting legal borders? What does the future hold for them? And what role do new technologies play in this evolving story?
