Lucinda is current working on three projects: firstly, an examination of the new and developing role for the parental responsibility concept in English law; secondly, a study of the privatisation of the substance of family law through the impact of family justice reforms on married couple's regulation of their financial obligations; and thirdly, a virtue-based model for decision-making in respect of children (as a way to move forward the rights 'vs' welfare debate).
