Workshop: The Normative Relevance of Foreign Law

05Apr2017
  • 04:00 PM - 06:00 PM
  • College of Law
  • Conference Room 1, College of Islamic Studies building, Education City

The workshop explores the justification of the foreign law's normative impact, and considers how much normative strength would be acceptable. It uses the example of the US Supreme Court - one of the most influential legal agents - to explore these questions and their far-reaching implications.

The workshop is delivered by Professor Pierre Legrand, who holds several positions at the Sorbonne, the University of San Diego, and the University of Melbourne.
