1. Mythology, Aesthetics and Modern Law: An Investigation into the Epistemology of the Law (Amit Bindal, JGLS): One of the best law school electives offered at Jindal. Critical legal enquiry at its best questioning the foundational assumptions of modern law and its functioning, the law's categorization of what constitutes evidence, and how the English common law has evolved into a system based on certain historical prejudices and practices.
2. Harry Potter and the Power of Imagination (Rashmi Raman, JGLS): Another course (for HP fans) that looks not just at the world of Harry Potter but also at how pop culture informs us about, and influences, the culture of law and legal practice. Although (one critique) this course could have been more reading intensive and lecture based. The course was predominantly based on student presentations. It would have been nice if the Professor dealt with the reading material more closely.
3. Psychoanalysis, Violence and Criminal Law: An Investigation into the Legal Unconscious (Amit Bindal, JGLS): A very good course that introduces students to a psychoanalytic method of reading the law. Students were introduced to how psychoanalysis, as a genre of reading, can help in critically reading and thinking about not just legislations and judgments, but also material legal practices, doctrines and legal traditions.
