Centre for Socio-Legal Studies Workshop:

'Socializing Economic Relationships - New Perspectives and Methods for Analysing Transnational Risk Regulation'

Thursday, 15th to Friday, 16th of April 2010 a the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies, Oxford University, UK

Co-ordinators: Bettina Lange, Oxford University and Dania Thomas, Keele University This SLSA supported international and interdisciplinary workshop picks up on three key strands of Karl Polanyi's work. In the early 1940's he set out in his book 'The Great Transformation' a powerful critique of market liberalism and its belief in the self-regulation of economic activity both in a national and global context. This critique is highly relevant to thinking about new approaches to the legal regulation of social and economic risks, also in the context of the current financial crisis.
