A law school in Kolkata, India, is offering specialised courses on the legal principles of the Harry Potter universe.
The program coordinator says he created the course as a way of maneuvering the country’s heated political climate where slavery, discrimination, and torture are still problems throughout India.
The course will examine how other creatures in the story such as house elves, centaurs and giants are marginalised in society and the role of the Daily Prophet as an outlet for official propaganda.
