The adage that ‘dynamite comes in small packages’ could have been written just for University of Canberra lecturer Shara Ranasinghe.

There’s no doubt you’re probably familiar with the two-beat theme of Law & Order, or if you’re slightly older, you might even remember the ‘Oogachaka’ dancing baby from legal show Ally McBeal.

And while an entire generation has grown up with Law &Order in one form or another, you may not have considered how that pop culture icon has also shaped our understanding of law. But it’s something Professor Jason Bainbridge is more than familiar with.
