The research mission of Tilburg Law School is to understand and improve the role of law in tackling societal problems now and in the future, particularly those connected with globalization and rapid economic, social, cultural and technological change. The research of Tilburg Law School is conducted in an organization that fosters diversity. In addition to jurists, international and national researchers from other disciplines, including economics, psychology, ethics and philosophy participate in the various research programs. Although they are uncommon in the field of legal research, we are convinced that internationalization and interdisciplinarity have become permanent characteristics of the study of law, because they
- hold the answers that legal science discipline can give to the questions raised by the changing context in which we live. European integration, the global economy, the multicultural society and the ever-increasing role of non-state actors are putting pressure on the dominant role of the nation-state and national law.
- are crucial factors in the process of the scientification of the law – a process in which Tilburg plays a pioneering role. Although law is much less of a universally integrated academic discipline than, for instance, economics, significant strides have been taken over the years, first towards internationalization, and now towards interdisciplinarity.
- afford new opportunities to make our academic activities relevant in the public debate.
