About LSSRN
The Centre for the Study of Law and Governance (Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi) has initiated the establishment of the ‘Law and Social Sciences Research Network’ in order to bring together scholars, lawyers and doctoral researchers engaged in research and teaching of issues of law in different social sciences in contemporary South Asian contexts. The attempt of this network is to create a forum for academics, researchers, and lawyers to interact with each other to find productive conversations with each other as well as enhance these conversations into future directions that law and social sciences scholarship in India might mature into.
