 ld at the Faculty of Law in 2025\, an opportunity for our community to ret
 hink the foundations of the discipline that still is central to our progra
 mme and our work. \n\nWith Professor Anthony Diala\, Director of the Centr
 e for Legal Integration in Africa at the University of the Western Cape\, 
 South Africa. His lecture\, to be held on zoom (register Comparative.law [
 at] mcgill.ca (subject: Prof.%20Diala%27s%20Conference)  (here)) is entitl
 ed: A theoretical framework for decolonial comparative law.  \n\nAbstract
 \n\nAlthough recent scholarship challenges the Eurocentric tradition of co
 mparative law\, this decolonial turn lacks a realistic theoretical framewo
 rk. I argue that decolonial comparative law should reflect the foundationa
 l values of indigenous laws\, the enduring legacies of colonial transplant
 s\, and the adaptive character of normative interaction in modern social f
 ields. I therefore propose adaptive legal pluralism as the cross-cultural 
 framework for reconciling state and indigenous legal orders in an era of g
 lobalisation. \n\n \n
