We're delighted to be hosting SLSA 2027 in Northumbria. The Law and Society group can't wait to showcase the amazing socio-legal research happening at Northumbria
And - it's a wrap! Grateful to @arwenjoyce.bsky.social & @ingathiemann.bsky.social, best co-convenors and amazing friends; to everyone who contributed to the Labour Law and Society stream #SLSA2025, and to @slsauk.bsky.social & @livunislsj.bsky.social for a wonderful conference!
Definitely important to carry on the conversation. This was a very interesting session
Sorry to have missed the last day. Had to head home.
