NLIU Bhopal's Centre For Jurisprudence And Legal Theory Invites Submissions For CJLT Blog
The Centre for Jurisprudence and Legal Theory (CJLT) at the National Law Institute University (NLIU), Bhopal, invites submissions for its CJLT Blog, a platform dedicated to rigorous and conceptually grounded engagement with jurisprudence, legal theory, and allied philosophical and interdisciplinary inquiries into law.
The Centre seeks to promote sustained scholarly engagement with foundational legal thought, challenge the perception of jurisprudence as inherently abstruse, and advance critical inquiry into the nature and limits of law. Rooted in the belief that all human constructs are ultimately intelligible to human beings, CJLT endeavours to simplify, amplify, and meaningfully articulate the objectives and scope of jurisprudence. The Centre also aims to disseminate philosophical and scientific theories that inform methods of seeking truth about law, while engaging with its silences and interstices.
