On 15-18 December 2024, HKU Faculty of Law hosted the Law, Literature and Humanities Association of Australasia Conference 2024, bringing together 165 scholars from across Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. The Conference was an invitation to collectively examine, critique, and, for the more daring, transform the “imaginaries” that constellate our grasp of reality and sustain the authority of law. Keynotes were given by Dr Daniela Gandorfer (on “After the Law”), Prof Peter Goodrich (on “Humouring the Norm: Video et Rodeo”), and Dr Kojo Koram (on “The Drug Kingpin of British Imperialism”). There was also a plenary roundtable on “Futures of Law and Humanities Education”, as well as 50 parallel panels, roundtables, and creative sessions on the themes of “Corporate Imaginaries”, “Empire’s Debtscapes”, “Feminist and Queer Imaginaries”, “Hope and Law”, “New and Alternative Legal Internationalisms”, “Law and the Inhuman”, to name a few. The result was a serious engagement with some of the most pressing issues of our time, and a joyous meeting place for friends old and new.
