NATIONAL MULTIDISCIPLINARY LAW CONFERENCE

9th March 2021 (Online Mode)

CONCEPT NOTE

Background: Symbiosis Law School,

Nagpur is coming up with the first National

Conference in the series, but with a unique

facet - blending interdisciplinary and

multidisciplinary into Legal Academia.

Interdisciplinary studies are the current

trend in legal academia. Most law schools

are flaunting their interdisciplinary

programs, offering courses from other

academic disciplines such as, economics,

statistics, sociology, business management,

etc. in the law school curriculum, creating

law and social science institutes of various

sorts within the law school, offering joint

PhD programs.

It is often observed that these two words –

interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary are

used interchangeably. But there is an ocean

of difference between both.

The multidisciplinary model of the legal

academia is based on the premise that the

academic study of law can adopt

methodological pluralism without

committing itself to the proposition that it

must rely exclusively on other disciplines for

professional tools. Multidisciplinary involves

borrowing and cross-fertilization. For

instance, formal, rational-choice models in

political science may borrow from Economics

or Mathematics; similarly, theories in law

would surely continue to borrow. But, the

distinctness is what remains; one can

imagine normative legal theory emerging as

a distinct approach that connect in

interesting ways with moral and political

philosophy and political theory.

But a truly multidisciplinary approach to law

would require changes in institutional form.

The depressing reality is that nearly all legal

academics are not scientifically introduced to

the canon of legal scholarship or the basic

ideas of the most important methods for the

academic study of law. The truth is that

interdisciplinary training is no cure for intra-

disciplinary ignorance.
