Transnational Law’s Multiple Legalities

Head back to programme.

Next sessions tomorrow (parallel): 12:00-13:30 CET/6:00-7:30 EST

Almost seventy years after Philip Jessup coined the term “transnational law” as “all law which regulates actions or events that transcend national frontiers…both public and private international law”, the public-private law dichotomy is still deeply entrenched in legal thought. This panel brings together scholars who have regularly transcended this dichotomy in their work to discuss how legal multiplicity is impacting on our understanding of transnational law today.
