AUC - Law & Society Research Unit

AUC - Law & Society Research Unit The LSRU is a collective project advancing the systematic and critical study of law and society in modern/contemporary Egypt.

It is housed under the Office of the Dean at the School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the AUC. The Law & Society Research Unit (LSR) at the American University in Cairo is a multi-year collective project advancing the systematic and critical study of law and society in modern/contemporary Egypt. Bringing together the expertise of a diverse set of scholars—lawyers, academics, researchers,

and activists—we seek to employ a sociological reading of law and revolution in Egypt to address larger theoretical concerns spanning Islamic law, positive law, administration of justice practices, as well as tribal law, customary law, and interest-group negotiations in the shadow of these, and other, adjudicative structures and normative arrangements.
