It is an interdisciplinary academic subject that explores the intersection of law, society, and social issues. It examines how legal systems and laws affect individuals, communities, and social structures and how social factors influence the development and application of laws. The subject typically covers topics such as human rights, justice, inequality, the role of the judiciary, the legal profession, and the relationship between law and social change. Students in social legal studies analyze legal principles alongside social, political, and economic contexts, considering both theoretical perspectives and real-world legal practices. The aim is to understand how law shapes society and how social forces influence legal frameworks, with a focus on promoting fairness, equity, and social justice.
