Law and Society Movement

The Law and Society Movement is an interdisciplinary field that studies the relationship between law and social factors. It examines how laws influence society and how social norms, values, and conditions shape legal systems. Scholars in this movement analyze issues like justice, power, and inequality, often drawing from sociology, anthropology, and political science. This approach seeks to understand not just the rules of law, but their real-world impacts, advocating for legal practices that are more aligned with societal needs and realities.
