Department of Indigenous Studies, Law & Social Justice:

Law & Society is an interdisciplinary undergraduate program rooted in social scientific, interpretive, critical and historical analyses of law across multiple historical contexts.

A sociolegal approach to Western law looks beyond authorized texts and formal institutions; it recognizes that legality exists in the consciousness and practices of people(s) touched by the law, in the process of making claims for justice, and in the coercive power embedded in social ordering.

Law & Society also highlights resistance to Western law, and alternatives to formal law in structuring social relations.
