CentreLGS pioneers and facilitates work that analyses, investigates and deepens understandings of the relationship between law, gender and sexuality. It seeks to broaden this field of study by using humanities methods (philosophical, historical, doctrinal, literary and cultural) to analyse legal issues relating to gender and sexuality. It also aims to deepen theorisation of relations of inequality, in particular to explore how gender and sexuality intersect other social relations, including class, disability, ethnicity, and race. CentreLGS involves a partnership between the University of Kent - the main physical base for the Centre - and the universities of Keele and Westminster.
