The DNA of our legal system | Anna Grear | TEDxBonn

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In her inspiring talk, Anna Grear goes through the patterns of injustice and the legal system flaws around the World. She discusses how Universal Human Rights Law have interacted with the corporate World, which is dictated by capital, not Human well-being. Anna Grear's work calls on insights from a range of disciplines despite being firmly located within a combination of critical legal theory and jurisprudence. She has a particular interest in the relationship between human rights and the environment, and in the theme of legal subjectivity, locating these in relation to contemporary globalization and to a central concern with the implications of the materiality of the living order – including the theme of lived embodiment. About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
