National PhD seminar in Law (DNDS) 2020: Law, legal science and politics – New relations?
The Faculty of Law, University of Bergen, is glad to host the National PhD seminar in Law (DNDS) 2020. The seminar will take place on a digital platform, and is suitable for both English- and Norwegian-speaking PhD-candidates.
Main content
Law, legal science and politics – New relations?
Law and politics have always been closely intertwined. Law is both a instrument for and a limit on politics. Legal philosophy has put much effort into understanding this relation more properly. The intimate connection between law and politics has in turn been central to discussions on legal science, its objective, justification, and methodological standards. However, politics is changing, and so too are law and legal science. So, where are we heading?
