Episode 4 - Reinventing Yourself as a Scholar

Comparative constitutional law scholars often find themselves working for a period of time, or even their entire career, in a legal system that is different from the one in which they were first educated and with which they are most familiar.

Moving jurisdictions presents a range of opportunities, such as the ability to develop a deep familiarity with more than one constitutional system, and challenges, such as the difficulty of adjusting to a new scholarly culture.

To discuss this topic, we are joined by Professor James Fowkes, Chair of Foreign and International Law at the University of Munster in Germany.
