Conference: International Law in Community Law: Another Incoming Tide?

The British Institute of International and Comparative Law and the Europa Institute of the University of Leiden have organized the 46th London - Leiden Conference, which will take place on June 30, 2007, in London. The theme is International Law in Community Law: Another Incoming Tide?, and the program is here. Why attend?
The theme will concern the inroads made by International law in European Community law. Having extensively discussed legal aspects of EU-US relations at last year's Leiden London meeting, we will now turn our attention, in particular, to the role of UN resolutions and of WTO rules in relation to Community law and their compatibility with EU legislation, involving questions of primacy and limits of competence.
