Jam session is largely informal musical event or activity where musicians, typically instrumentalists, play improvised solos, tunes and songs. ‘Jurisprudence Jam Session’ is envisaged as an event that features a small and preselected group of legal philosophers who ‘improvise’ on one of the topical issues in jurisprudence. Despite having one overarching theme, ‘Jurisprudence Jam Session’ is as informal as possible, encouraging all the present participants to freely jump in with clarificatory questions to the ‘jamming’ speaker, as well as to continue the initiated philosophical ‘improvisation’ by subsequently throwing comments, criticisms and appraisals. ‘Jurisprudence Jam Session’ is not directed toward producing some immediate final product – its emphasis is on the very process of philosophical ‘jamming’ and exchanging arguments. Its success ultimately depends on the ability of invited ‘jamming’ jurisprudes to meaningfully contribute to a preselected, leading legal philosophical ‘tune’.
As such, ‘Jurisprudence Jam Sessions’ within ALF have the purpose of introducing the main Project’s topics and setting the stage for the upcoming envisaged scholarly activities at the Work Packages WP3, WP4, WP5 and WP6. During the ALF’s Academic kickoff event three inaugural ‘Jurisprudence Jam Sessions’ shall be organized, covering the three leading Project’s topics: law & language; law & practical rationality; and law & logic.
