The Influence of Common Law and Civil Law Traditions on the Work of the International Court of Justice

The British Institute of International and Comparative Law is delighted to invite you to the next event in the Temple Garden Chambers Seminar Series in International Adjudication:

The Influence of Common Law and Civil Law Traditions on the Work of the International Court of Justice

Thursday 14 November 2013, 18:00-19:00
British Institute of International and Comparative Law
Charles Clore House, 17 Russell Square, London WC1B 5JP

Ever since the seminal study by Sir Hersch Lauterpacht on Anglo-American and Continental schools in international law, international lawyers are confronted with different legal traditions in the course of their practice. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is in a unique position to take into account various legal traditions and integrate them into a uniform body of international legal rules. This event will take a closer look at this interaction and evaluate its influence on the case law of the ICJ.

The seminar will be followed by a reception.

Keynote Speaker:
Judge Joan Donoghue, International Court of Justice

Chair:
Robin Tam QC, Temple Garden Chambers
