Research Seminar in Sociology of Law with Peter Finke and Kobil Ruziev

24 January 2024 13:15 to 15:00 | Seminar

The Sociology of Law Department arranges a series of research seminars inviting local and international social scientists to present state-of-the-art research within various areas of law and society. These seminars are placed within the framework of the research project "Multilevel Orders of Corruption in Central Asia".

 

 

The seminar topics may be subject to change.

Navigating the Soviet Legacy: Challenges in Reforming Doctoral Education in Uzbekistan

Information about the seminar will be posted later.

Kobil Ruziev is an Associate Professor with the Faculty of Business and Law at the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol). His main research interests include banking and financial reform in emerging economies, SME access to formal finance, institutional economics, higher education reforms and economic transformation in the former Soviet Union in general and in the central Asian economies. 

A Study in Human Adaptability: Qazaq Pastoralists in Western Mongolia

Information about the seminar will be posted later.

Peter Finke is a Professor and Vice-Dean for the Study Affairs Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at the University of Zurich. He is an economic anthropologist specialising in Central and Inner Asia and has conducted extensive fieldwork since the early 1990s. He is particularly interested in the changes that affected people in the region with the transformation of the socialist systems and the way they have adapted to the new uncertainties in a globalising world. Other projects deal with transnational migration movements within and beyond the region and with identity patterns and their changes in the course of national state-building schemes. In his most recent collaborative project, he tries to investigate the impacts a series of economic booms and crises have in one particular region of Qazaqstan, Zheti-Suw, and how the costs and benefits of these are distributed within society.
