At the Faculty of Law, University of Turku (Finland), law students have the possibility to attend a set of three interconnected courses: Posthuman and postmodern challenges to law; Challenging the legal truth; Law and the urban. While keeping a common critical engagement with law, each course invites students to explore the tensions and criticalities arising between law and a specific “matter”: the first course delves into law and human bodies; the second into law and non-human bodies; the third into law and space. With three different yet complementary approaches, these courses aim to cultivate a normative knowledge that is critical, experiential and embodied, situated, interdisciplinary, and extends beyond legal texts. Ultimately, they venture into efforts to reconnect law with the materiality of everyday life, bodies and spaces. This article is based on the authors’ own interconnected teaching experiences, where they experimented with alternative ways of thinking and practising law.
