The Law School’s legal histories research cluster brings together researchers who investigate and publish on a variety of areas of legal history, including members from outside the school. We share an interest in critical, socio-legal and interdisciplinary approaches, and offer a collaborative and supportive research environment. Specialisms include gender, sexuality and law, the legal professions, Nazi law, space law, and commonwealth, colonies and empire. Our graduate researchers are valued members and contributors to our lively events programme which includes the Diversity, Dilemmas and Discoveries conference series.
