About Law, Humanities and Social Sciences Collective

The Law, Humanities and Social Sciences Collective is a student-run organization that studies the intersection between the law and social sciences from a relatively marginal global south perspective. To that end, the Collective runs a blog, organizes talks and symposia and also engages in outreach activities to ensure a level playing field in higher education for all sections of the society. It seeks to bridge the gap between the Global North and Global South with regard to such platforms, where the Global South visibly falls behind. In doing so, the Collective strives to mentor interested contributors and readers, provide insights on research and writing skills, and thematically collate knowledge resources in the area

Who Are We Looking For?

Candidates with an active interest in interdisciplinary studies with some exposure to law and willing to engage with questions of how the unique social and historical conditions of the countries of the Global South, and India in particular, shape our perception of the law.
