Oxford Law invites alumni to join us at Meeting Minds Global 2020 for an exclusive online webinar led by Professor Linda Mulcahy, Director of the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies.

Professor Mulcahy will talk about the ways in which the architecture of law courts symbolise the values and purpose of legal systems. Drawing on over a decade of empirical work in the field, and two books on the subject, this seminar will consider how ideas about courthouse design have evolved over time and the various struggles for territory that have occurred in discussions about courthouse design.

The event is free to attend. All you need to do is register once to receive links to the full programme later this month and access to all content throughout the week. The Meeting Minds sessions will be run using the online event platform Zoom, so if you have not done so already, please download Zoom onto your device.
