The primary aim of the organisation is to increase diversity in the legal profession. In 2020, 50% of 24 partner law firm trainees were AS members! During the session we will explain who we are, more about what we do, and why we do what we do! We will also discuss how you can register to be an AS member and what this means for you. Questions are welcome. Unfortunately we have had to cancel this event due to low numbers. |

Reading Group: Law and Morality in Early 20th Century MarxismMS TeamsLaw and Morality in Early 20th Century Marxism In this reading group, we examine the relationship of law and morality through the eyes of early 20th century Marxist literature. This was a time of acute crisis in Western political history. The workers’ movement was in tumult, with the ruination of the 2nd International, the repression of revolutionary fervour in Europe, and the rise of fascism. As old powers crumbled and others arose, the moral status of law came into focus. A new radicalism asked out loud: Is there anything inherently good about the legal order? In each session, we relate the selected literature to philosophical problems surrounding state, law, and morality. Among other things, we will discuss the critique of natural law, examine the link between history and moral judgments, and have a closer look at the Marxist notion of ideology. No prior knowledge is required; open debate is highly encouraged. Each session will focus on one text (see below). Digital copies of the texts will be provided on Teams, some also in an abridged version (at least one week in advance). Ross or Simon will provide a brief introduction to each text, then there is roughly one hour for discussion. 1st session: 3 November 2021 Karl Marx (1843): “On the Jewish question.” In Marx and Engels Collected Works, vol. 3, 146–174. London: Lawrence & Wishart, 1975.
