The Foundation for Law, Justice and Society is an independent institution affiliated with Oxford University.
It has three principal objectives:
to study and reflect on the role of law in international, regional, and national affairs;
to identify issues of contemporary interest and importance for detailed study;
to inform policy by making the work of researchers and scholars more accessible to practitioners, whether in government, business, or the law.
The report and policy briefs from our workshop examining the Social Contract in Hard times has just been published.
