The Extra-Legal Governance in Global Perspective conference brings together scholars who are interested in research that addresses how we conceptualize various types of governance (extra-legal, criminal, rebel, hybrid, etc) and how such governance shapes and is shaped by conflict, illicit markets, regime type, political parties and elites, and law enforcement. We are looking to break down the disciplinary and regional silos within which this topic normally operates to create a common language/vocabulary and accumulate findings. Our conversation will also emphasize a wide range of regions throughout the globe.
