Legal Systems Innovation
Modern states entrust to the law the consolidation of fairer societies, respect for democratic values, and the full protection of human rights in an environment of legality. Having these objectives, law, like any technique of social organization, must recognize and internalize the complexity of the social, economic, and political environments in which it is inserted. From this perspective, legal research leans toward learning and knowledge that must support the ordering instruments inherent to Law, either in its most direct expression or in laws, regulations, sentences, sanctions, or as part of a public policy decision in which law and other disciplines converge. Since the legal phenomenon is dynamic and changing, simultaneously a product and producer of reality, then research must be conceived as a necessary condition for the effectiveness of law and the way of social progress.
However, if the societies of the twenty-first century are characterized by geopolitical environments of greater complexity, inequality and poverty, conflict, and global risk (among other elements), in a true technological revolution, then not only research but also legal education must be oriented to such problems to identify, redefine, and even extend the frontiers of law.
In response to the problems identified, Tecnologico de Monterrey has declared the following areas of research and specialized legal education: transitional justice; law and technology; emerging rights; gender, diversity, and inclusion; conflicts and international negotiation, among others.
