Abstract: After over a decade of transsystemic teaching, has the transsystemic approach evolved from a way of teaching law to a way of thinking about law? And if so, is the Faculty of Law ready to embark on a project that aims to explore and disseminate this new epistemology? When law is conceived transsystemically, what do we understand by the idea of "trust"? Or "reliance"? Or "good faith"?
The QRCPCL is launching a collectively authored volume which aims to illustrate some of the lessons of the last decade, as experienced by those who have participated in the enterprise. This seminar will touch on the goals of the project, partly by way of the discussion of a draft entry on "unjust enrichment".
