The seminar series of the centre brings legal doctrinal analysis and philosophical argument to bear on key questions of globalisation, with an eye to demonstrating that globalisation raises substantive questions of justice, questions that need to be taken very seriously by lawyers and policy-makers at the international and national levels. On the face of it, it seeks to contribute on two levels: first, to subject existing legal institutions to sustained criticism; second to propose new forms of legal regulation by suggesting a fresh way of thinking about the role law can play in a globalised world. By the end of the series, it is hoped, that some more light will have been shed on the content, form and institutional validity of the Constitution of Globalisation.
