At JNU, Centre for the Study of Law and Governance has started a new interest in determining how practices of governance get stabilised through law and governance? How these practices are open law to further contestation. The Centre provides a multidisciplinary approach to creating research and teaching on the relationship between law and governance.

The Centre mainly focus on critical social issues like social science approaches in its attempt to explore how practices of law and governance are embedded in political, judiciary, economic, social and historical processes; how practices of law and governance are dispersed over various sites ranging from the government, bureaucracy, community and family; the socio-legal processes that deter or provide access to justice; and notions of governmentality, sovereignty and rights in specific politico-jural regimes.
