Conference Theme: 'Whose Law, Whose Voices? Constructing Legal Stories in Asia'
This year's conference theme invites participants to share their perspectives on legal narratives and practice across the Asian continent. This theme prompts an exploration of the diverse voices that contribute to the construction of legal frameworks, reflecting the nuanced interplay between tradition and change. The conference seeks to examine whose narratives shape legal discourse and explore how they influence legal conversations and transformations in Asia. The aim is to foster dialogue that evaluates whose perspectives are represented within legal narratives, emphasizing the
importance of inclusivity and diversity in shaping an equitable representative legal landscape across Asia.
In addition, the theme invites reflection on how contestations of power influence legal discourse in the global contexts of environmental protection, digital technology, market forces, and social change. For example, how do the voices of indigenous peoples, women, minorities, and activists challenge or transform the dominant legal narratives in Asia? How do the legal stories of Asia interact with the global legal narratives of human rights, democracy, and justice? How do the emerging technologies create, shape, and disseminate legal narratives in Asia?
ALSA 2024 also welcomes proposals on any topic concerning the relationship between law and society in Asia.
