On Friday 18 June, from 9.00 – 13.30, a roundtable on Law and Popular Culture takes place hosted by the Faculty of Law via Zoom.
The roundtable aims to bring together multiple approaches to the place of law in popular culture. Further, the roundtable will bring out the manner in which popular culture affects law and the understanding by actors in society.

Two previous editions were hosted at the Faculty of Law of Maastricht University (2019 and 2020), and offered a forum to discuss approaches to this area of study. Other experiences at UM include MaRBLe Projects, directed by Jan Smits (2015) and by Agustín Parise (2020), gathering papers by students on alternative perceptions of law.
The roundtable aims to trigger further interest on this area of study, alerting on the value that non-conventional approaches to law offer to the better understanding of social sciences.
