The MCC Center Law and Society adopts an interdisciplinary approach, bringing together jurisprudence (social science), theology (religious studies) and the humanities (cinema). The three main strands are currently exploring Christianity and human rights (especially religious freedom); interreligious dialogue; and the relationship between film and society (including our film talk show "Roll and Look").
