Workshop: Socio-legal Studies and Disaster: Cross-National and Cross-Disciplinary Conversations

这次讲习班将汇集来自两个目前独立的研究领域-社会法律研究和灾害研究-的一批跨学科和跨国学者，以便在不久的将来从这两个研究领域的交叉点出发，制定一个新的更复杂的研究议程。参加讲习班的学者将努力为自然灾害和人为灾害对风险和责任归属的影响方面的新知识方向奠定基础;适用现有规则;引入新的规范和规则;发展新的政府机构;重新构建社会对身份、责任、权利和法律作用的理解。根据扩大这些领域国际合作的目标，拟议讲习班的地点是西班牙Onati的Onati国际法律社会学研究所，讲习班将促进来自不同学科的一系列国际学者之间的交流与合作。它也有可能在目前不同的研究领域启动一个新的和潜在的变革性研究路线。

This workshop will bring together a cross-disciplinary and cross-national set of scholars from two currently separate fields of study -- socio-legal studies and disaster studies -- to develop a new more sophisticated research agenda in the near future that draws from the intersections of these two areas of study. Scholars at the workshop will work to develop the basis for new intellectual directions in the impact of natural and man-made disasters on the attribution of risk and blame; the application of existing rules; the introduction of new norms and rules; the development of new governmental institutions; and the re-constitution of the social understanding of identity, responsibility, rights and the role of law. Consistent with the goal of expanding international collaboration in these fields, the site for the proposed workshop is the Onati International Institute for the Sociology of Law in Onati, Spain.The workshop will foster exchange and collaboration among a range of international scholars from a variety of disciplines. It also has the potential to initiate a new and potentially transformative line of research in currently disparate areas of research.
