Abstract
PREFACE This annual lecture, as the program schedule indicates, is designed to provide a sense of some notable “principles and practices” that underlie and animate LatCrit theory, praxis, and community as an expression of critical outsider jurisprudence, or “OutCrit” legal studies. Because the LatCrit community and body of work are multiply diverse, far-flung, and perpetually under construction, any one account inevitably falls short of this assignment if conceived as a comprehensive account. Therefore, as part of the Faculty Development Workshop program, we repeat the exercise annually to incrementally build a collective, multi-vocal portrait of our joint enterprise in increasingly inter-generational terms.
