A lot of university research is carried out simply in order to advance knowledge: to challenge or support a particular scientific theory, for instance. Other research may be practical or applied: finding out new or better ways of doing things. Technological research may be like this. Research in law may have elements of both these purposes. However, because it is embedded in our political system and our social values, law-related research often has a quite distinct approach.
