This special issue of Studies
in Law, Politics, and Society aims to foster a dialogue that is inclusive,
constructive, and innovative in order to lay the basis for evaluating the
usefulness and impact of cultural expertise in modern litigation. It
investigates the scope of cultural expertise as a new socio-legal concept that
broadly concerns the use of social sciences in connection with rights and the
solution of conflicts. While the definition of cultural expertise is new, the
conflicts it applies to are not, and these range from criminal law to civil
law, including international human rights.
The research project "Cultural Expertise in Europe: What is it Useful For?" held its first conference in Oxford during December 2016. Scholars specializing in law and culture in civil and common law traditions both inside and outside Europe present nine papers on cultural expertise with(out) cultural experts, sites of cultural expertise, comparative perspectives on cultural expertise, cultural expertise in non-European contexts, and suggestions for a way forward. Their topics include from invisible to visible: locating cultural expertise in the law courts of two Finnish cities; assessing cultural expertise in Portugal: challenges and opportunities; between norms, facts, and stereotypes: the place of culture and ethnicity in Belgian and French family justice; cultural expertise in Australia: colonial laws, customs, and emergent legal pluralism; and beyond anthropological expert witnessing: toward an integrated definition of cultural expertise.

child custody, adoption, land rights, and asylum. The authors debate on a
variety of themes, such as legal pluralism, ethnicity, causal determinism,
reification of culture, and the "culturalization" of defendants. The volume concludes with an overview of the ethical implications of the definition
of cultural expertise and suggestions for a way forward.
