Socio-legal studies is an interdisciplinary field that explores the complex relationship between law and society. It goes beyond the traditional study of legal rules and principles to examine how laws operate in practice, how they shape and are shaped by social, political, cultural, and economic forces, and how they impact individuals and communities.
