Choreography of Consent

Experiments in Dance/Law Research: 

 

Led by Anna Macdonald (Reader in Movement) and Marie-Andrée Jacob (Professor of Law) this network uses dance research to examine the movement of law. The goal is to better understand how law "moves" in an embodied way. 

The network focuses on consent, exploring how dance-based research can deepen legal understandings of consent, and how legal studies can influence dance practices related to consent.
