University of Valencia, 13-15 September 2012

Call for Papers

Deadline 23 April 2012

The IG on International Economic Law Interest Group invites all members of the ESIL to submit works for presentation in either of the two panels of our workshop: “The Regulatory Answers to the Sovereign Debt Crisis” and “The reach and impact of bilateralism as a tool for fragmentation or de-fragmentation in IEL”. The first panel will deal with the different legal instruments created both in the European Union and at the international level to solve the financial problems brought about by the sovereign debt crisis. On the second subject we will deal with fragmentation in a very wide sense, including trade, investment law, or even natural resources law. Proposals for papers may address either of the two topics. The deadline for the submission of abstracts is 23 April 2012. The ESIL IEL IG workshop takes place on Thursday 13 September 2012, 9:30-12:30 am.

In addition, there will be a joint workshop of the IG on International Economic Law and the IG on International Environmental Law on the topic of the United Nations ‘Rio+20’ Conference taking place on Wednesday, 12 September 2012, 6-8 pm.
