Addressing issues of law and social justice

At the Sydney Law School, we think teach, research, and engage in the social justice dimensions of law.  We appreciate the social context in which law operates, and law’s potential to both enable and constrain, to both liberate and oppress.

Critical perspectives in the classroom, experiential learning in a variety of social contexts, and co-curricular activities, give students the opportunity to explore law’s power and potential.
