- Topic: Law and History Description: This graduate seminar focuses on the role of law broadly across time and space from the ancient to the modern world. The course offers students an opportunity to explore how individuals, states, and societies throughout history have engaged with law, rules, and legal institutions, and introduces major approaches to legal history that students can think about in relation to their own scholarly interests. We will consider questions such as: how law forms and challenges regimes of power; how legal categories and concepts are shaped by and shape society, economy, culture and individual and group identities; how legal consciousness develops and spreads; and how different legal regimes and normative systems coexist and compete.
