Streams and current topics 2025
In 2010 a new 'streams and themes' format was introduced at the SLSA's annual conference at the University of the West of England. This proved a very popular move and is now a regular feature of SLSA conferences – now styled 'Streams and Current Topics'. This section of the website is intended to enable streams and current topics to have a life beyond the Annual Conference.
The current streams and current topcis and their convenors are listed below.
Convenors and organisers of current topics are invited to contact the This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if they have any queries about their role or if they would like to contribute stream/topic-related news for the Socio-Legal Newsletter.
In 2023 the SLSA Board approved a new Stream and Current Topic Convenorship in the SLSA Policy and Accompanying Report.
The call for papers 2025 is now open. Closing date: 18 December 2024.
