Thematic Groups
The Human Development and Capability Association encourages researchers who share common interests to organize thematic groups. At present, sixteen thematic groups are active. If you are involved in a similar thematic group, or if you would like to start one, please read and complete the following document and hence contact us at info@hd-ca.org. Please know that the thematic groups currently work only in English. | |
| The thematic group The Capabilities Approach and Law aims to support the work of scholars who are interested in the relationship between capabilities approaches (CA) and the law. For this purpose the notion of the law is openly construed, including but not limited to legal systems, legal institutions, legal theory and substantive legal domains. Their 'relational' aspect to the capabilities approaches may be illustrated by questions of: - compatibility between law and CA; - normative implications of the CA on law; - socio-legal assessment of the impact of law on capabilities. Methodological questions concerning the 'relational' aspects between CA and law are also pertinent to the working group. |
