Life and Law in a Land Where the Music has Stopped

To begin by way of analogy, listening to John Borrows lecture is like joining a feast after one has just eaten. You think you’re secure in a satiated state, but then he offers you more; the lawyer as the new Indian agent, pedagogy as learning to walk, law as a verb (and NOT as a noun). And all of those are from just a few moments in a two-hour talk replete with ideas that set my mind alight. I was left with that distinct impression that Professor Borrows has forgotten more about law than I had ever learned…and I’m a student at a place some consider among the foremost institutions for the study of law in Canada.

The Canadian Network of Law and Humanities (CNLH) brings together a community of scholars interested in the cultural, imaginative, and embodied aspects of law. The network seeks to foster collaborative research, share teaching resources, and organize events with our partners. More at cnlh.ubc.ca
