On 7th and 8th of February 2019 the workshop "Language and Law: Engaging with the Field" took place at the University of Jyväskylä, Finnland. On the first day of the workshop Jonas Bens of Project B04 held a presentation entitled "Critique in Unexpected Places: On Critical Ethnography in Law and Language Research".

His presentation posed the question of the critical potential of ethnography in law and language research, and Jonas Bens exemplarily analysed instances during the course of his own research in which he himself had unexpectedly been confronted with this question.
