If you're unfamiliar with the group, the CRN seeks to bring together sociolegal scholars interested in legal history. It welcomes a broad array of scholarly interests and methodological approaches. The Law and Society Movement has long welcomed legal historians and encouraged legal history, and the CRN intends to further foster this relationship. Organizers seek to encourage presentation of historical legal work at the Law and Society’s Association’s annual meeting, and to create opportunities for interdisciplinary and cross-generational conversations. You can find out more about the CRN from last year’s post in Q&A form, here.
At this year’s Law & History CRN business meeting, a small group of faculty and graduate students discussed ways of building on this year’s successes -- including more outreach to non-Americanist legal historians and an expanded web presence.
If you’re interested in joining the CRN, contact Joanna Grisinger (Center for Legal Studies, Northwestern University) or Logan Sawyer (University of Georgia Law School).
