Season 3 trailer: Here we go again!
Description
PALcast host, Fabio de Sa e Silva, explains what he and his guests will be discussing during season 3 of PALcast. His primary focus will be on the papers published by PAL collaborators in a special issue of the World Comparative Law journal, released in early 2023. This special issue includes in-depth studies on Brazil, India, South Africa, Hungary, and the United States. It also features two cross-cutting pieces, written by him and Kim Scheppele, in which they try to derive lessons our project may have generated to the larger field of studies on autocratic legalism. Here is a link to the special issue:
Fabio also plans to explore some themes that have emerged from PAL research findings as significant to a deeper understanding of autocratic legalism. These include religion, political economy, and informal legality, and their connections to legal assaults to democracy. Lastly, he plans to interview scholars who are leading several other projects similar to PAL, which sprung in the sociolegal community. In those conversations, he plans to compare and contrast our approaches, methodologies, and findings.
