Overview

Background

My list of publications exhibits a multifaceted exploration of the law. Spanning across different topics, as stated above, my research sits at the intersection of society, public policy, and the law. Exploring the traditional boundaries of doctrinal law and its theoretical foundations in relation to emerging and new societal challenges, my research unites several strands of legal inquiry linked to social justice and equality.
