Research Methods in Law by Dawn Watkins

Explaining in clear terms some of the main methodological approaches to legal research, Research Methods in Law is written by specialists in their fields, researching in a variety of jurisdictions.

Covering a range of topics, including feminist approaches, economic analysis of the law and socio-legal studies, each contributor addresses the topic of ‘lay decision makers in the legal system’ from their particular methodological perspective. This focus on one main topic allows the reader to draw comparisons between methods with relative ease. This third edition has been fully updated, and includes bullet point summaries at the start of each chapter. There are also two new chapters covering biographical approaches and creative approaches.

The broad range of contributors makes Research Methods in Law well suited to an international audience, and it is ideal reading for PhD students in law, undergraduate dissertation students in law, LL.M Research students and early year researchers.

Dawn Watkins is Professor of Law at the University of Sheffield.

Mandy Burton is Professor of Law at Loughborough University.
