The Dickson Poon School of Law is seeking a contentious and proactive Project Officer for a major European Research Council-funded research project it hosts, The Laws of Social Reproduction. This is an exciting opportunity to support the smooth coordination of this ERC H2020 funded project, based in both India and the UK. Anchored in the global South context of India, the project offers a cutting-edge, interdisciplinary lens through which to retheorise the normative, empirical, regulatory and policy dimensions of the law’s regulation of social reproduction.
The project research centres on how woman’s unpaid domestic labour is reflected within society and Indian Law, through 5 sectors of work, unpaid domestic work, sex work, erotic dancing, commercial surrogacy and paid domestic work.
