ABOUT LLC
ABOUT LLC
Concept: This is a unique experiment where we have tried to create a dialogue between people from a wide spectrum of specializations ranging from the fields of Law, Linguistics, and Culture. It is a hierarchy-free model, based upon mutual respect. This type and magnitude of gathering of professionals and scholars across the fields of Law, Language and Culture is perhaps unprecedented.

It is a hierarchy-free model, based upon mutual respect. This type and magnitude of gathering of professionals and scholars across the fields of Law, Language and Culture is perhaps unprecedented.
Objectives: To promote the interdisciplinary interactions between Law, Language, and Culture. The emergent field of Law, Language, and Culture is fledgling, and the scholars dedicated to it know the significance of this field not only for the individual disciplines of Law, Language and Culture, but are also aware of the potential it holds for enriching and transforming the justice delivery systems, academic insights, and the society itself. They want to sustain and enrich it, and LLC is meant to provide a forum to voice their concerns, share their perceptions, and plans. We all realize that awareness about ‘Law, Language, and Culture’ should be increased amongst the academics, Judiciary, and beyond; More researchers should be promoted to undertake research in this interdisciplinary field; and we should strive together to create more career and academic growth opportunities in this field, so that the young scholars, and seasoned academics alike can make a meaningful contribution by the application of this branch of knowledge in the service of the human society.

A Brief History: on 26 January 2017 Prasannanshu created a Conference group on WhatsApp, it underwent nomenclatural changes, and possibly was used for more conferences. Likewise, on 07 July 2019 another conference group was formed by him, that underwent similar transformations like the previous group and subsequently the two groups were merged and this gathering of ‘battle-hardened’ academics was rechristened as 'Law, Language, and Culture '. This group boasts of witnessing several international academic events including the international Winter Schools held in NLU Delhi in 2017 and 24-28 Feb. 2020, one in Florence, Italy, and most recently, in July 2020, an Online conference in collaboration with the University of Sydney.

Members: We are nearing 200 members. It is a reasonably impressive number, given the highly specialized nature of the field, and the high standards expected for admission to this fraternity. There is a lot of flexibility, and there are no hard or fast rules for admission, still if not all, almost all members are postgraduates, and there is a predominance of doctorates and research degree holders. Professionally, our members range from Professors, Deans, Directors to Research Scholars, and students from across the world.

Status: It is not an official forum -- we can proudly say, 'there is nothing official about it' :-), and it is free (There is no membership fee). At the same time, it is a fraternity that means business, and delivers in many invisible and visible ways.
