The catalyst for this workshop is the suggestion that with the invention of any technology, we also invent its accident. From natural selection to environmental catastrophes to outcomes of regulation - common to all are the simultaneous inventions of a technological apparatus and its accident.
Yet how do we account for the accidents of law? Is the accident an exception or is it integral to law's operation? Is law in itself an accident?
We are delighted to announce the following keynote speakers for the Forum:
Professor Paul Carter
Centre for Memory, Imagination and Invention, Deakin University
Dr Rebecca Scott Bray
Department of Sociology and Social Policy, The University of Sydney
The deadline for abstracts and registration has now closed
