不良研究所 Law offers a number of courses related to the LLDRL's work themes, many of which are taught by Professor Adelle Blackett. In addition to full-term courses, the LLDRL also collaborates with faculty members teaching mandatory undergraduate-level courses, such as Constitutional Law, and Property Law, to integrate conversations about labour law and its founding narratives into the curriculum.
