Allegra Lab

Allegra Lab (allegralaboratory.net) is a collective of academics and a blog that discusses contemporary societal issues ‘Allegra Lab: Anthropology, Law, Art & World’ (allegralaboratory.net) is a collective of academics, an association and an online experiment founded in 2013. It explores creative ways to fill the ‘dead space’ that exists between traditional modes of academic publication and ongoing scholarly and societal debates. Allegra Lab discusses issues related to anthropology, law, art and beyond, and it is run by a diligent editorial team of professional scholars. Everything about our laboratory is experimental. We welcome all texts, suggestions, and proposals for collaboration that push us to rethink the borders of conventional academic boxes. We encourage exchanges across disciplines and between scholars and artists. In addition to texts and pictures we interact with videos and live-streams. We claim no publishing rights over material published on our site, and welcome content created for other contexts. Our primary aim is to facilitate the circulation of academic thought by increasingly connecting it to the aesthetics and flows of ongoing societal debates. This, we claim, offers scholarship renewed positions of relevance.
