Rule of Law in Context (ROLIC) represents the point of arrival of Faculty of Law, Symbiosis International (Deemed University) at maturity with its own imprint in the world of legal research. The journey which began by showcasing in-house research, building on research excellence within and as avenue for developing new ideas as well as updating research ideas with skills in 2012 as a national conference; grew into international participation by 2015. This provides added impetus to the thrust areas, excellence centres and innovations of Symbiosis International (Deemed University). ROLIC is in keeping with lead research trends, addressing the need for own legal reality of India to be reflecting the need for narrowing the gap between the idea and reality of a rule of society. It is hoped that such discovery and rethinking will bring the legal community closer to serious soul searching to build a stronger rule of law in India, for, a great research must affirm life. It must measure the march of rule of law behaviour of a society and hence indicate the march of civilisation.
It is an inter-disciplinary conference which emphasizes Law & Life Interface in the spheres of Innovation, Science, Technology, Human Behaviour, Global Policy and Governance. The conference over the years has endowed a strong platform to discuss, collaborate and explore diverse issues in the field of legal studies. It invites some of the great minds from within and outside India to share and discuss their ideas on contemporary research.
For the very first time, the conference shall be held over the span of three days which is specially designed to discuss and deliberate on various interdisciplinary thrust areas of SI(DU) and core issues and suggest the way forward for the respect of Rule of Law. An important feature of the conference besides the plenary session will be ‘EURASIA – Panel Discussion on Common Challenges & Converging Perspectives: Rule of Law in Europe and Asia’.
