Teaching

Ann leads the undergraduate modules in the Law of Personal Taxation, and US Constitutional Law (with Alex Turk). 

Enquiries from students interested in pursuing a PhD in tax law, broadly; legal perspectives on feminist economics; or, fiscal sociology also are welcomed.

Ann Mumford specialises in tax law, fiscal institutions and equality. The scope of Ann’s published work has ranged from feminist perspectives on taxation law; to, as a contributor to the “new” fiscal sociology movement, the integration of tax legal scholarship into the realm of economic sociology. 

In teaching, Ann has extensive experience as course convener and programme director of undergraduate and post-graduate degrees in commercial law, tax law, and law and accounting. She has overseen the production and delivery of LLB, LLM and MSc courses at Queen Mary, the London School of Economics, and Cardiff University. Additionally, Ann has served as the British Council’s visiting chair in Gender Studies at the University of Complutense, Madrid.
