The Normative Anatomy of Society: Relations Between Norms and Law in the 21st Century

The department of Sociology of Law at Lund University would like to invite you to participate at our International Conference: “The Normative Anatomy of Society: Relations Between Norms and Law in the 21st Century” to be held in Lund, Sweden the 24th and 25th of April 2012. For registration and more details about the conference please visit www.normsconference.com
 
The conference aims to promote an interdisciplinary debate about the role of norms in our society and their interaction with the law. Norms play a crucial role in defining the way we act in our society and influence our behavior telling us that, what we do is right or wrong. They are about how we behave and act in different situations in our lives.  Therefore, it is crucial to understand the different types of norms and laws that are influencing our behavior in society, what we have named for this conference the “Normative Anatomy of Society”.  Identifying and questioning these different types of norms is not only a task for Sociology of Law but is a field in which multiple disciplines interact. For that reason, the conference aims to increase opportunities for communication across disciplines boundaries and invite professors and researchers from different academic backgrounds to discuss and understand the society’s normative structure. We welcome you to take part in these discussions.
 
The International Norms Conference is organized by the Sociology of Law Department at Lund University in Sweden, in close cooperation with the Nordic researchers in sociology of law.
