  2. In a healthy society, we have to be able to talk about the "rules of the game."

    I’m sharing a timely new article by Dennis Joiner: "Is Challenging Election Results Anti-Democratic or Just?" It is a humanized and straightforward look at the tension between verifying results and accepting the will of the voters.

  4. Hey Law & Society, saw that video:

    youtube.com/watch?v=CG9pRG6cPA

    and listened to this episode of the @lawfare podcast:

    lawfaremedia.org/article/lawfa

    on how to regulate #LLM like #ChatGPT etc.

    To me, the idea of #TrustedFlaggers seems really interesting as it includes #watchdogs and #CivilSociety into the #Commission |s formal system of #ChecksAndBalances

    Is this as extraordinary as it seems to me?

  8. Arbeite immer noch die #republica23 ab. In diesem Video diskutieren @spielkamp | @SandraWachter und @philipphacker über Regulierungsideen zu #chatgpt etc.

    Die Figur der #TrustedFlaggers schien mir auch soziologisch besonders interessant. Hier wird #CivilSociety , hier werden #AufsehendeGewalten oder #watchdogs in die staatlichen #ChecksAndBalances integriert.
    Ist das - den Entwurfsstatus außen vor - so spektakulär, wie es mir scheint?

  11. another #introduction

    Hello, all 👋 ! I am a Ph.D./J.D. candidate at Northwestern from Kazakhstan. I study judicial legitimacy, legal profession, and democracy in #Eurasia.

    I am fascinated by new tech, and Mastodon seems exciting. Glad to see so many people moving here. Looking forward to meeting you all. Outside of school, I am interested in science fiction, photography, podcasts, and (light) philosophy.

  12. Which concepts do we use?
    Whose voices do we highlight?
    These are methodological questions we need to discuss.

  13. #introduction

    I'm a quantitative social scientist doing work in the fields of #sociology, #criminology, and #lawandsociety (#lsa). My research examines issues including #privateprisons, the role of #police, and public discourse on #firearms. I'm an Associate Professor of Sociology in the School of Public Policy at #OregonStateUniversity. I've very much enjoyed the #socialscience migration to Mastodon so far; hoping #soccer and #surfing soon follow.

  14. I jump on the #introduction train. I am professor of #internationallaw at the #university of #Lausanne. I research legislative omissions, state responsibility, how #humanrights are implemented at the local level #lawandsociety #newlegalrealism and what this all means for #climatejustice #climateemergency.
    #AcademicMastodon, #foreignrelationslaw. #parent #disability. I have a website: www.ius-gentium.ch. PhD on #ESCR #internationalcriminallaw #transitionaljustice. Tx for reading!

  15. So great to see so many new folks here, and more internationally diverse than who I was connected with on the bird site! I'm a co-organizer of the Law and Society Association (#LSA) household finance CRN. Do you have a paper or book about #consumerdebt, #bankruptcy, household finance that you'd like to present? Or you're coming to LSA and interested in household finance research? We'd love to have you as part of our CRN! Email me and I'll get you connected.

  16. Law & society scholars: do you have a new book out (now or soon) that deals with prefigurative politics? We were looking to put together a new books roundtable for next year’s LSA and need more participants. New deadline is 15 Nov.
