SUMMARY:Book launch: China and the International E-commerce and Digital Trade Law
DESCRIPTION:Book launch: China and the International E-commerce and Digital Trade Law\nTHIS EVENT IS BEING HELD ONLINE AND IN-PERSON AT SYDNEY LAW SCHOOL. \nThe University of Sydney Law School is delighted to invite you to the launch of China and the International E-commerce and Digital Trade Law by Associate Professor Jie (Jeanne) Huang\, Sydney Law School. \nThe book launch is an in-conversation discussion with the author and Mr Ian Watt\, Vice Chair of the United Nations Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT)\, Professor Hans Hendrischke from the University of Sydney Business School\, and Associate Professor Delei Peng from the East China University of Science and Technology in China. \nAbout China and the International E-commerce and Digital Trade Law \nThis monograph extensively compares the e-commerce/digital trade chapters in the CPTPP\, USMCA with RCEP and other free trade agreements concluded by China and discusses the impact of these rules on relevant Chinese domestic laws and development strategies. \nIts main points are: \n(1) China should promote the pluralism trend of international digital trade and e-commerce legislation\, but this type of pluralism is not the pluralism of one-hundred flowers blooming or decentralized pluralism. On the contrary\, China should seek centralized pluralism: trying to become one of a limited number of centers leading international digital trade and e-commerce legislation. \n(2) For a long time in the past\, China’s legislative model for domestic laws in foreign-related economic relations was to use international pressures (e.g. trade negotiation) to push domestic reforms. That is to apply the ‘internalization of international law’ model. However\, in the field of digital trade and e-commerce\, China has increasingly departed from the old model and instead\, adopts the “externalization of domestic law” model. For example\, China’s legislation on the protection of personal information has included provisions to achieve extraterritorial application\, and Chinese courts have actively exercised long-arm jurisdiction in intellectual property disputes. The application of Chinese domestic law outside China will likely become the norm in the coming years. \n(3) The “externalization of domestic law” model will likely help China become one of a limited number of centers shaping international digital trade and e-commerce legislation. \nIt has seven chapters covering major themes of the e-commerce/digital trade: cross-border data flow\, intermediaries (such as Internet platforms)\, trade facilitation and China’s innovation in trade in goods by e-commerce\, China’s private-international-law response to digital trade and e-commerce development\, personal information protection and international investment arbitration. \n“As one of the earliest research monographs in this field\, this book has a thorough and precise analysis of CPTPP digital trade rules and is an indispensable reference book for scholars and practitioners studying CPTPP and free trade agreements.” Professor Qingjiang Kong\, China University of Political Science and Law \nModerator: Mr. David Markus\, law and data compliance expert and EMBA student at the University of Sydney Business School. \nFind out more about the book. \nThe book is in Chinese: Jie (Jeanne) Huang\, China and the International E-commerce and Digital Trade Law: the case of the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership (University of International Business and Trade Press\, August 2022\, Beijing China\, ISBN: 9787566323989\, 262\,000 words). \nAbout the author \nDr. Jie (Jeanne) Huang is an Associate Professor at the University of Sydney Law School\, specializing in conflict of laws and digital trade. She is the Co-chair of the American Society of International Law Private International Law Interest Group and Co-Director of the Centre for Asian and Pacific Law at the Sydney Law School. She has published three monographs with leading publishers in English and Chinese. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>\n\nWednesday 12 October 2022\, 1-2pm (AEDT) \nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:ACCEL NextGen Series: Realism in the Corporate Sphere - Greenwashing and Net Zero
DESCRIPTION:ACCEL NextGen Series: Realism in the Corporate Sphere – Greenwashing and Net Zero\nTHIS EVENT IS BEING HELD ONLINE AND IN-PERSON AT SYDNEY LAW SCHOOL. \nThe Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law invites you to a panel discussion on the Australian Centre for Corporate Responsibility’s case against Santos. Developed and chaired by the ACCEL interns\, this event forms part of the ACCEL NextGen Series. \nAlthough corporations are increasingly responding to the climate crisis through implementing sustainability targets and promoting ESG practices within their day-to-day business\, environmental law has begun to focus on ‘greenwashing’: the deceptive persuasion of a company to the public that their policies and protocols are environmentally friendly. \nThe Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (“ACCR”) has recently filed a landmark case in the Federal Court against Santos\, one of Australia’s largest oil and gas companies. This is the first case in which a company’s net zero emissions target has been challenged\, as well as being the first relating to the viability of carbon capture and storage (“CCS”) and the environmental impacts of blue hydrogen. \nThe ACCR filed their case initially on the basis that Santos engaged in misleading and deceptive conduct in claiming that CCS is able to make gas a “clean fuel.” The ACCR alleges that the pathway for net zero emissions that Santos mapped out in its 2020 Annual Report for reaching its sustainability goals is not substantiated by scientific evidence. \nIn August 2022\, the ACCR amended pleadings to include additional claims arising from Santos’ 2020 Investor Day Briefing and their 2021 Climate Change Report. Allegations include that ‘blue hydrogen’ production would actually increase Santos’ greenhouse gas emissions and that CCS is not practical to capture all of Santos’ increased emissions. Further\, ACCR claims that their net zero plan does not account for the expected projected emissions and production growth from oil and gas exploration. \nYou will hear from those directly involved in the landmark case and from experts in the field of environmental law and corporate citizenship. \nPanelists:\nDr Sebastian Hartford Davis\, Barrister\, Banco Chambers\nProfessor Christopher Wright\, The University of Sydney Business School\nSally Torgoman\, Partner\, Infrastructure\, Assets & Places\, KPMG \nAbout the event \nThe panel will delve into the potential implications of the case\, such as the role of environmental law in enforcing corporate responsibility and how it can be harnessed to push corporations beyond mere ‘box-ticking’ of ESG requirements. Further\, the panel will explore how corporations can balance financial stability and their sustainability goals in keeping with legal obligations\, considering the future of this developing area of the law. \n\nWednesday 19 October 2022\, 1-2pm AEDT\nCPD Points: 1 \nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School. Please indicate your viewing preference when registering. \nThis event is hosted by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law (ACCEL) at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Theoretical Advances and Problems in the Sociology of Punishment
DESCRIPTION:Theoretical Advances and Problems in the Sociology of Punishment\nIn-person event \nThis seminar\, delivered by Sydney Law School visiting Fellow\, Professor David Garland (New York University) explores the theoretical advances and problems in the sociology of punishment. \nThe last twenty years have seen a remarkable increase in “punishment and society” scholarship. Together with this quantitative expansion\, there have also been important qualitative developments in research\, analysis and explanation – many of which can be counted as scientific advances. \nIn this talk\, Professor Garland will describe a number of dimensions along which theory\, method and data in this field have been improved and also identify a number of continuing challenges and problems. Examples from the American literature on the emergence of mass incarceration and the nature of the ‘war on drugs’ are used to indicate the range of theoretical resources that scholars in this field have developed and to point to empirical and theoretical questions that remain to be resolved. \nAbout the speaker \nDavid Garland is Arthur T Vanderbilt Professor of Law and Professor of Sociology at New York University. His distinguished body of work includes Punishment and Welfare: A History of Penal Strategies; Punishment and Modern Society: A Study in Social Theory ; The Culture of Control: Crime and Social Order in Contemporary Society ; Peculiar Institution: America’s Death Penalty in an Age of Abolition ; and The Welfare State: A Very Short Introduction. \nHis many honours include membership of the British Academy\, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, and the Royal Society of Edinburgh\, and receipt of the American Society of Criminology’s Edwin H. Sutherland Prize for outstanding contributions to theory and research. \nHe is currently at work on a book entitled Roots of Injustice: The Structural Sources of America’s Penal State. He is a Visiting Fellow at University of Sydney School of Law in October/November 2022. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nTuesday 1 November\nTime: 6-7.30 pm\, followed by a cocktail reception\nVenue: Law Foyer\, Level 2\, New Law Building (F10)\, University of Sydney \nCPD points = 1.5 \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \n\n\nPresented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology at Sydney Law School.

We believe human and non-human beings have an equal right to life. \nThe meaning of life is grounded in the interdependent relationship between all things. There are benefits from promoting earth-centered governance where relationships are inclusive of our nonhuman kin. This balance and harmony with our living cultural landscapes grounds the philosophical framework of values\, ethics\, and belief that the Law is in the Land\, not in Man. \nWe believe we can share and dream together so we can better understand how we\, as human beings\, can once again start to live in harmony with each other and with everything around us. We need to dream a new reality and defend our amazing planet\, Mother Earth\, and life itself from climate chaos and destruction. Otherwise\, Mother Earth will be lonely without the vibrations of human beings! \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nTuesday 8 November\, 6-7.30pm\nCPD points =1.5 \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThe speakers \nProfessor Anne Poelina is Co-Chair of Indigenous Studies at the Nulungu Institute Research University of Notre Dame\, and Adjunct Professor at the College of Indigenous Education Futures\, Arts & Society\, Charles Darwin University\, Darwin.

SUMMARY:Building resilience in Australia's electricity infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:Building resilience in Australia’s electricity infrastructure\nOnline conference \nAustralia has been hit by successive extreme weather events and disasters in recent years. As the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report has warned this is going to get worse. Australia has already warmed by 1.4° C. Each of the climate-induced disasters – floods and bushfires – has had a severe impact on our electricity infrastructure. When power is lost\, telecommunications also fail meaning that communities are unable to stay in contact with emergency services and with each other. This conference assesses ways in which our existing grid can be made more resilient but it also looks to the resilience of our future grid in 2040. Experts from the disciplines of law\, engineering\, and physics\, in Australia and the United States\, will share their perspectives on how this can be achieved. \n__________________________________ \nThursday 10 November 2022\, 9am-4.30pm AEDT\nClick here to view the program. \nThis event is being held  online.

DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nThe Reliability and Credibility of Eyewitnesses\nSubstantive Law \nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nEyewitness testimony can provide critical leads in investigations and can be extremely persuasive in court. However\, inconsistencies or inaccuracies in eyewitness accounts can undermine the perceived credibility of the witness and the value of the evidence. This is particularly problematic when witnesses are required to recall details of events that happened months or years earlier and that occurred over a number of episodes (such as bullying or domestic violence). \nThis seminar will look at the different stages of memory and highlight various factors that can affect the accuracy of memory at each stage and will outline best-practice techniques for eliciting the most complete and accurate testimonies from eyewitnesses. This seminar will assist legal practitioners to understand the strengths and limitations of human memory. \nPresenter \nHelen Paterson is an Associate Professor in Forensic Psychology at the University of Sydney. She has a Bachelor of Arts from the University of British Columbia and a PhD from the University of New South Wales. Her primary research interest focuses on the effects of traumatic events on memory and psychological well-being. She regularly works with industry partners to conduct high-quality applied research. She has also worked with NSW Fire and Rescue on ways to train firefighters to make effective decisions under stressful conditions and on post-traumatic stress disorder\, resilience\, and post-incident debriefing. \n\n\nRegistration\nFull series (7 webinars) = $300\nIndividual webinar(s) = $50 \n\nCLICK HERE to register \nThis webinar will be released on 24 November 2022.\n \nYou will receive a webinar link on this date\, and can also register at a later date to catch up in your own time.   \n\nAbout the series\nThe 2022-23 Criminal Law CPD series\, presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology is an innovative educational program made up of 7 recorded webinars delivered by eminent speakers from the University of Sydney and the legal profession. \nA new webinar will be released each month from September 2022 – March 2023.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: Lawmativity
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Lawmativity\nHybrid event\n  \nExplaining the normativity of law – how it guides action by giving reasons – is one of the central questions of general jurisprudence. It is also one of the topics on which there is least agreement. In the first half of the talk\, Alex Horne offers a diagnosis as to why. Basically: the desiderata for a genuine and mutually satisfactory solution to the problem of law’s normativity cannot all be satisfied by one theory. In the second half of the talk\, he articulates his partial solution to the problem and explains (i) which desiderata we should abandon and (ii) why the best – and complete – account of law’s normativity is therefore piecemeal. \nAbout the speaker:\nAlex Horne is a PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge. He works on various topics in moral psychology\, ethics\, political philosophy\, and jurisprudence. \n\nThursday 24 November 2022\, 6-7.30pm AEDT\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School. Please indicate your viewing preference when registering. \n  \nCPD Points: 1.5 \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Climate litigation against companies in a comparative perspective
DESCRIPTION:Climate litigation against companies in a comparative perspective\nIn-person event \nIn this seminar\, Prof M Marc-Philippe Weller (Heidelberg University) takes the spectacular 2021 Milieudefensie v Shell ruling from a first instance court in The Hague as an opportunity to identify cross-jurisdictional problems of civil climate change litigation from a comparative perspective. \nThe Shell case was the first climate action between private parties that was successful in the first instance and led to Shell’s obligation to drastically reduce its greenhouse gas emissions\, including its Scope 3 emissions. From the perspective of legal realism\, the Dutch ruling provides a momentum for climate litigation worldwide. However\, from the perspective of potential lawsuits for the reduction of CO2 emissions against companies in Germany\, one must assert that the Shell ruling cannot simply be transposed into the German legal order. \nDiscussant: Dr Katherine Owens\, Director of the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law. \n\nAbout the speaker\nProf. Dr. Marc-Philippe Weller\, Vice-Rector for International Affairs of Heidelberg University \nProf. Marc-Philippe Weller has been Vice-Rector for International Affairs of Heidelberg University since 2019. He was appointed Professor for Private Law\, Company Law\, Private International Law\, and Comparative Law at Heidelberg University in 2014. As Vice-Rector\, Prof. Weller is responsible for the international partnerships of Heidelberg University\, in particular the 4EU+ European University Alliance (Sorbonne\, Copenhagen\, Geneva\, Heidelberg\, Milan\, Prague and Warsaw)\, as well as the Heidelberg University’s centres abroad in Santiago de Chile\, New York\, Delhi\, and Kyoto. He is also in charge of legal compliance. \nProf. Weller studied Law at the universities of Heidelberg and Montpellier\, and earned his doctorate at Heidelberg University in 2004\, while he was also employed as an associate advocate. He completed his habilitation at the University of Cologne in 2008. Before accepting the appointment to Heidelberg University\, Prof. Weller held a Chair at the University of Mannheim from 2008 to 2011\, and at the University of Freiburg from 2011 to 2014. He has been a visiting professor at universities in Austria (Vienna)\, France (Paris)\, Sweden (Goteborg)\, Taiwan and the USA (Georgetown). Prof. Weller has also directed two summer courses at the Hague Academy for International Law. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nWednesday 30 November\nTime: 12-1pm\nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School.\nLocation: The University of Sydney\, Boardroom\, Level 4\, New Law Building (F10) \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \n\n\nCPD Points: 1 \nThis event is proudly presented by the Sydney Centre for International Law and the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law.

SUMMARY:The inaugural Kim Santow law and social justice panel: The promise and pitfalls of a marketised NDIS
DESCRIPTION:The inaugural Kim Santow law and social justice panel: The promise and pitfalls of a marketised NDIS\nIn-person event \nSupported by the Kim Santow Law and Social Justice Fund\, Sydney Law School’s annual panel discussion closely examines a legal issue in its socio-cultural context\, with social justice and human rights considerations central to the discussion. \nThe National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) holds great promise for improving the lives of people living with disability\, but due to its marketised structure it also has a number of pitfalls. To discuss this difficult policy issue\, this year’s panel brings together a range of perspectives: \n\nProfessor Emeritus Ron McCallum AO – Ron is the former Dean of Sydney Law School and an expert in disability and labour law. He was a part-time member of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal and in October 2022 was appointed as one of three independent expert reviewers by the NDIS.\nDr Angela Jackson -Dr Jackson is lead economist at Impact Economics and Policy\, with expertise in distributional analysis\, labour markets\, disability\, health\, gender\, housing and fiscal policy. She has authored a number of major reports on housing policy\, and the importance of investing in social housing for an equitable economic recovery from COVID-19.\nDeborah Connors – Deborah has been a NDIS client since late 2016. She has experienced and employed a variety of support services in that time – including carers\, cleaners\, nurses and physiotherapists. The experience has run the gamut from superb and life changing\, to terrible and despairing. As a result of the good support services\, she eventually found Deborah has been able to continue to work fulltime and participate fully in life\, and is living evidence of the NDIS goals.\nGiancarlo de Vera – Giancarlo is the Senior Manager of Policy at People with Disability Australia. They are a passionate advocate for disability\, multiculturalism\, racial justice\, LGBTIQ+ affairs and cultural diversity. Giancarlo was recently named as one of the 40 Under 40 Most Influential Asian-Australians of 2021.\n\nThe panel discussion will be facilitated by Australia’s Disability Discrimination Commissioner\, Dr Ben Gauntlett. \nThe discussion will be followed by audience questions\, refreshments\, and presentation of the Inaugural Kim Santow Law and Social Justice Essay Prize. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThursday 1 December 2022\, 6-7.30pm\nCPD points =1.5 \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is presented by the University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Julius Stone Address: The Legal Experience of Injustice
DESCRIPTION:Julius Stone Address: The Legal Experience of Injustice\nIn-person event \nIn The Faces of Injustice\, Judith Shklar criticizes the ‘normal model’ of justice which views injustice as ‘a prelude to or a rejection and breakdown of justice\, as if injustice were a surprising abnormality’. Her central insight is that ‘the real realm of injustice … does not stand outside of the gates of even the best known of states. Most injustices occur continuously within the framework of an established polity with an operative system of law in normal times.’ She also offers a second\, Hobbesian insight: ‘[w]ithout juridical institutions and the beliefs that support them\, there can be no decent\, just\, or stable social relations\, but only anxiety\, mutual mistrust\, and insecurity’. Since juridical institutions and the beliefs that support them may be necessary for justice\, but insufficient to prevent injustice\, the insights are perfectly consistent as a matter of abstract logic. \nMy question is consistency as a matter of a different logic\, the logic of legal experience for those in the ‘jural community’\, the community of persons subject to law. I argue that such experience shows that certain kinds of injustice are inconsistent with an operative system of law since they create tensions within the jural community that it must resolve to remain operative. I rely on two of Shklar’s examples\, the Nazi state and slavery in USA\, and two she did not mention\, the apartheid state and the ‘parallel state’ of Israel and the Occupied Territories\, to show how systems of law offer a legal resource that makes resistance to certain kinds of injustice possible and thus the practice of human rights lawyering. However\, at the same time we see that all involved in maintaining an operative system of law\, including human rights lawyers and their clients\, participate in legitimizing the system. Here I suggest that Shklar underestimated the ability of the legal theories of three important exemplars of the normal model of justice\, H.L.A. Hart\, Lon Fuller and Ronald Dworkin\, to illuminate different aspects of the experience of injustice. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThursday 8 December\, 6-7.30pm\nCPD points =1.5 \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nAbout the speaker\nProfessor David Dyzenhaus \nDavid Dyzenhaus is a professor of Law and Philosophy at the University of Toronto\, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada and a Corresponding Fellow of the British Academy.

SUMMARY:Ethical Practice for Junior Criminal Law Barristers
DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nEthical Practice for Junior Criminal Law Barristers\nEthics and Professional Responsibility\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nComing to the Bar is a significant step in the career of any lawyer. For junior counsel intending to practise in criminal law\, the ethical and moral obligations are significant. Factors like direct briefs\, invoicing\, barristers’ rules\, duty to the court and professional conduct are all matters you are required to manage on your own. This is often a shift for those that have practised under the guidance of a principal or in government agencies. This presentation will examine that transition to the NSW Bar\, considering the viewpoints and perspectives of junior counsel. It will animate some of the best-practice features of maintaining an ethical and professional practice\, and ways that that model of practice can be leveraged to ensure success. This presentation will assist legal practitioners considering a career at the NSW Bar\, solicitors who brief barristers and play a role in the discharge of their ethical obligations\, and junior barristers recently called to the Bar. \nPresenter \nTalitha Hennessy is an experienced criminal lawyer having appeared for both the defense and prosecution. Before her admission to the NSW Bar in 2017\, she was an Associate to Justice Cohen at the Family Court in Sydney. Talitha has also worked as a solicitor for the Aboriginal Legal Service in Dubbo\, appearing in over 100 hearings in the Children’s Court and Local Court throughout Central Western NSW\, as well as in numerous severity and conviction appeals and sentence matters in the District Court. Talitha also worked as solicitor at the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (NSW)\, where she regularly appeared on behalf of the Crown in summary hearings in the Local Court and also appeared for the Crown as an advocate in a number of District Court trials. In addition\, Talitha has prepared and instructed in murder trials and other complex matters. She has also appeared in Family Law applications in the Federal Circuit Court\, and in Care and Protection matters in the Children’s Court. \n\n\nRegistration\nFull series (7 webinars) = $300\nIndividual webinar(s) = $50 \n\nCLICK HERE to register \nThis webinar will be released on 15 December 2022.\n \nYou will receive a webinar link on this date\, and can also register at a later date to catch up in your own time.   \n\nAbout the series\nThe 2022-23 Criminal Law CPD series\, presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology is an innovative educational program made up of 7 recorded webinars delivered by eminent speakers from the University of Sydney and the legal profession. \nA new webinar will be released each month from September 2022 – March 2023.

SUMMARY:Myths\, Misconceptions and Mixed Messages: An Early Look at the New Tendency and Coincidence Evidence Provisions
DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nMyths\, Misconceptions and Mixed Messages: An Early Look at the New Tendency and Coincidence Evidence Provisions\nSubstantive Law\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nFollowing the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse\, Uniform Evidence Law jurisdictions are implementing reforms to the tendency and coincidence evidence provisions. These reforms aim to relax the exclusionary rules so that the prosecution can more readily rely upon other allegations against the defendant and the defendant’s prior guilty pleas. The reforms purport to address the traditional misconception that such evidence would lack probative value unless the defendant’s other misconduct shares distinctive similarities with the charged offence. The reforms can be expected to increase the rate of successful prosecutions. However\, these benefits are likely to be compromised by the reforms’ unnecessary complexity. Rather than improve understanding of the inferential value of other misconduct evidence\, the reforms may sow confusion\, wasting court resources\, and creating associated costs for complainants\, defendants\, and other participants. \nThis seminar will follow the argument presented in Professor Hamer’s article of the same title\, which appeared in (2021) 45(4) Criminal Law Journal 232. \nPresenter \nDavid Hamer is a Professor at the University of Sydney Law School. He is interested in the way criminal courts deal with evidence in determining whether to convict or acquit defendants. While often focusing on the detail of evidence law and criminal procedure\, he takes an interdisciplinary approach. David’s research has regard to both the psychology and the logic of proof and draws on empirical research and formal probabilistic models. Further\, his work explores how the pursuit of factual accuracy is affected by other sometimes competing concerns: efficiency\, fairness\, and the overarching need to provide a mechanism for settling disputes that retains public acceptance. \n\n\nRegistration\nFull series (7 webinars) = $300\nIndividual webinar(s) = $50 \n\nCLICK HERE to register \nThis webinar will be released on 19 January 2023.\n \nYou will receive a webinar link on this date\, and can also register at a later date to catch up in your own time.   \n\nAbout the series\nThe 2022-23 Criminal Law CPD series\, presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology is an innovative educational program made up of 7 recorded webinars delivered by eminent speakers from the University of Sydney and the legal profession. \nA new webinar will be released each month from September 2022 – March 2023.

SUMMARY:The Living Law of Wikipedia
DESCRIPTION:The Living Law of Wikipedia\nIn-person event\n  \nWikipedia offers (yet) another example of a scheme of ‘private ordering’\, regulation and governance that works largely outside of state law. Its institutions and procedures show strong resemblances to those found in legal systems generally.  But what may distinguish Wikipedia ( or what some Wikipedians claim does so) is the frequent discursive insistence on the risks of taking rules seriously and the dangers of what they call ‘Wikilawering’. \nIn this talk\, Professor Nelken will seek to explore why this is so and what it means in actual practice\, also with reference to a various ‘trouble cases’ as illustrations. \nAbout the speaker:\nDavid Nelken is Professor of Comparative and Transnational Law\, and former Head of Research\, at the Dickson Poon Law School\, King’s College\, London. Professor Nelken’s research focuses on theoretical enquiry and empirical investigation in the areas of comparative sociology of law\, criminology\, and legal and social theory. He taught law at Cambridge\, Edinburgh and University College\, London\, from 1976-1989 before moving to Italy in 1990 as Distinguished Professor of Legal Institutions and Social Change at the University of Macerata. From 1995 to 2013 he was also Distinguished Research Professor of Law at Cardiff University\, and from 2010 to 2014 Visiting Professor of Criminology at Oxford University. He is also a Fellow of the UK Academy of Social Sciences. On the editorial board of numerous journals\, he is also a member of the Independent Board of the SCOPUS (Elsevier) Database of peer-reviewed literature\, where he is responsible for evaluating all law journals worldwide. He was a Panel member of Scottish Children’s Hearings juvenile justice system 1979-1983\, a member of Italian Regional Crime committees in the 1990’s and\, amongst many visiting appointments\, was the Global Law professor at Tilburg University\, the Netherlands\, for 2014. \n\nTuesday 21 February 2023\nTime: 1-2pm AEDT (Light lunch from 12.30pm)\nVenue: New Law Building (F10)\, Level 4\, Common Room\, University of Sydney (Camperdown campus)\nCPD Points: 1\n  \nThis event is proudly hosted by The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:LGBTQ organising in the new protest environment - book launch and panel discussion
DESCRIPTION:Book launch and panel discussion: LGBTQ organising in the new protest environment\nIn-person event \nThe use of public space for recreation and protest remains hotly contested\, as reactions to anti-protest legislation in NSW and other Australian jurisdictions show. 2023 marks a decade since a case of police excessive force at the 2013 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras went viral on YouTube. That case marked a watershed moment in police-LGBTQ community relations in NSW\, and was part of a global awakening about the power of bystander video distributed through social media. \nDr Justin Ellis’ 2021 monograph Policing Legitimacy: Social media\, scandal and sexual citizenship critically engages with that case and considers the relationship between digital media\, LGBTQ identity-based rights claims and police accountability. This book launch and panel discussion provides a timely opportunity to consider how LGBTQ individuals and communities will organise in the face of increased penalties for peaceful public protest in NSW\, and unease about police use of platform biometrics and related issues of privacy and consent. The launch of Dr Ellis’ monograph will be followed by a discussion on these issues chaired by Institute of Criminology co-director Dr Carolyn McKay\, and between Professor Kane Race\, Dr Justin Ellis and Mr Josh Pallas – president of the NSW Council for Civil Liberties. Please join us for this timely and important discussion. \nAbout the author \nDr Justin Ellis is a senior lecturer in criminology at the Newcastle Law School and the editor-in-chief of Current Issues in Criminal Justice\, the journal of the Institute of Criminology at the Sydney Law School. His research examines the relationship between digital media technologies\, institutional trust and politically vulnerable populations\, LGBTQ in particular. His scholarship on these issues is regularly published in high-ranking internationally peer-reviewed journals and in media commentary. \n>>>>>>>>>>>> \nTuesday 28 February 2023\, 6pm (AEDT)\nVenue: University of Sydney\, Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology at Sydney Law School. \n

SUMMARY:Beyond Punishment Seminar: Transforming rehabilitation through digital technology
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Punishment Seminar: Transforming rehabilitation through digital technology\nIn-person event \n\n\nInstitutions of criminal justice are not isolated from broader trends in society – and developments in the application of technologies in prisons have made it important to reconsider the role of digital technologies in rehabilitation. \nWhat is the role of digital technologies in the context of the rehabilitative aim of prisons? What ought it to be? How is this role likely to develop in the future? And what challenges need to be borne in mind when answering these questions? \nThese issues will be the focus of the Beyond Punishment Seminar: Transforming Rehabilitation Through Digital Technology\, which is hosted by the Sydney Institute of Criminology in conjunction with Corrective Services NSW at the Sydney Law School. \nA good first step is to assess the current state of play regarding potentially rehabilitative technologies in prisons. The seminar will examine the roll-out of android tablet devices in NSW prisons and the impacts on family visits\, health services and education of people in prison\, especially since the Covid-19 prison lockdowns\, and it will also examine how the devices can be used to deliver effective programs of rehabilitation. \nHow are tablet devices employed in prison? Do they lead to greater participation in rehabilitation or mean that people in prison socially withdraw? Can android devices address reintegration back into society and minimise issues of digital illiteracy? Is this an initiative that can ultimately decrease re-offending rates? \nTechnologies are never politically neutral and often raise ethical issues that need to be considered\, particularly in the context of criminal justice’s rehabilitative aims and this seminar will aim to consider these ethical issues and to try to answer some of the questions raised above. \n\n\n\n\nOur panel will be moderated by: \nDr Carolyn McKay\, Sydney Institute of Criminology\, Co-Director \nCarolyn is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Sydney Law School where she teaches Criminal Law\, Civil & Criminal Procedure and Digital Criminology.

DESCRIPTION:Conflict-of-norms in the information society: national security and cross-border data flow\nOnline event \nNational security has increasingly become a concern for cross-border data flow. In this panel discussion\, we will survey the conflicts and potential collaboration between protecting national security and enhancing digital trade. Our distinguished panel will cover relevant laws and practices in big (the US and China)\, medium (the UK)\, and small (Vietnam and Taiwan) jurisdictions. \nSpeakers\n\nProfessor Anupam Chander (Professor\, Georgetown University)\n\nTrump v. TikTok: How a Chinese big tech platform defeated the President of the United States\, and why that’s important for free expression \nWhen then-President Donald Trump sought to ban TikTok\, ostensibly because of its Chinese roots\, US courts came to TikTok’s rescue. Rather than deferring to the president’s claims of a national security emergency justifying the ban\, courts held that the president lacked statutory authority to ban TikTok. This talk will explain why\, and what was at stake in this struggle. \n\nMs. Nguyen Ha (Visiting Scholar Harvard University\, Research & Teaching Associate Monash University)\n\nConflicting cybersecurity norms in Vietnam: the borrowing of local actors \nAs scholars grapple with the complexity of international cybersecurity\, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam offers a surprisingly rich snapshot of cybersecurity norms in the global arena. This talk discusses the Vietnamese cybersecurity regime that has been shaped by local actors\, who borrowed conflicting cybersecurity norms from international laws and trade agreements. \n\nDr. Phoebe Li (Reader\, Sussex University)\n\nHow national security is shaping digital sovereignty: the cases of middle power countries \nEconomic security has been a main driver for countries to develop digital and data sovereignty in order to protection national security. This talk will discuss the comparative efforts of the UK government in developing an AI strategy after leaving the EU and how the Taiwanese National Security Law has been strengthened by the recent law reform in trade secrets protection. \n  \nModerators/commentators\n• Dr. Han-Wei Liu (Senior Lecturer\, Monash University) \n• Dr. Jie (Jeanne) Huang (Associate Professor Sydney University\, Visiting Scholar Harvard University) \n  \n__________________________________ \nFriday 3 March\, 11am-12pm AEDT (Thursday 2 March\, 7-8pm EST)\nThis event is being held  online.  \n__________________________________ \nThis event is presented by the Sydney Centre for Asian and Pacific Law at the University of Sydney and Private International Law\, Monash University\, and Law & Technology interest groups of the American Society of International Law.

SUMMARY:Development of the Common Law by Analogy to Statute
DESCRIPTION:Ross Parsons Centre Law and Business seminar: Development of the common law by analogy to statute\nIn-person event \nIn recent decades the importance of statute within Australian law has increased enormously. Legislation has proliferated in size\, number and scope; and many of these statutes contain underlying policies\, values and ideas which the common law is capable of taking cognisance of. This gives rise to the question addressed by Adam Waldman and Michael Gvozdenovic in this face-to-face presentation: can the common law develop by analogy to statute? \nPart I of the presentation will consider how attitudes across the common law world have shifted towards recognising a stronger interrelationship between statute and the common law. This has paved the way for the recognition of analogical reasoning to statute in Australia. \nPart II will examine the High Court’s jurisprudence on this form of judicial reasoning. It will closely examine the authorities that have explicitly discussed it\, which appear to have left the legitimacy of such reasoning open. It will then identify numerous High Court cases which have developed the common law by analogy to statute\, albeit often without explicitly recognising that they are doing so. Considered together\, these cases demonstrate that such reasoning must be legitimate in Australia. \nPart III will then compare this Australian jurisprudence to that of the United States\, which is the jurisdiction in which such reasoning was first pioneered. It will consider whether the American jurisprudence supports the legitimacy of this reasoning\, and what lessons might be drawn from it. \nSpeakers \nAdam Waldman\, Colin Phegan Associate Lecturer\, Sydney Law School \nMichael Gvozdenovic\, Herbert Smith Freehills and Adjunct Senior Lecturer\, Sydney Law School \nCommentator \nHon Justice Mark Leeming\, New South Wales Court of Appeal\, Challis Lecturer in Equity\, Sydney Law School \nChair \nDr Jason Harris\, Professor of Corporate Law\, Sydney Law School \n>>>>>>>>>>>> \nMonday 6 March\, 2023\nTime: 6-7pm \nVenue: The University of Sydney\, Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown \nCPD Points: 1 \nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is proudly presented by the Ross Parsons Centre at Sydney Law School. \n

SUMMARY:The Work of the Mental Health Review Tribunal
DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nThe Work of the Mental Health Review Tribunal\nProfessional Skills\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nBalancing the competing priorities of offenders with mental health diagnoses\, the community\, and the criminal justice system more broadly\, is complicated. At the intersection of those interests sits the Mental Health Review Tribunal. The Tribunal endeavours to acknowledge and respect the dignity\, autonomy\, diversity and individuality of those whose matters it hears and determines. But how are these outcomes achieved? What are the characteristics of those best-practice features in a rapidly developing criminal justice system? – especially as it grapples with growing rates of mental illness and more complex mental health questions. District Court Judge and President of the Mental Health Review Tribunal Paul Lakatos SC considers these questions\, as well as the balancing of priorities between the criminal justice system and the health system as a point of focus that is rapidly taking on greater importance and\, indeed\, engaging more resources. This presentation will assist legal practitioners practising criminal law with an interest in mental health\, as well as those practitioners with a lived experience of mental health. \nPresenter \nJudge Paul Lakatos SC commenced his professional career working as a solicitor for the Aboriginal Legal Service in 1977. He continued his work in the Sydney metropolitan area representing indigent clients with the Public Solicitor’s Office from 1978. In 1982 Judge Lakatos SC led a team of investigators including the AFP\, ATO investigators and forensic accountants\, investigating bottom of the harbour tax schemes at the Special Prosecutors Office. In 1984 he was admitted as a Barrister\, practising in Criminal Law; Administrative Law; Appellate Law; Coronial inquiries and before ICAC and the Police Integrity Commission – and as counsel assisting ICAC and the State Coroner. In 2005\, Judge Lakatos was appointed as senior counsel and\, in 2008\, was appointed as a Judge of the District Court of NSW. Judge Paul Lakatos SC commenced as the President of the Mental Health Review Tribunal in 2019\, where he oversees its functions. He also sits on Tribunal hearings in both forensic and civil jurisdictions. Most recently\, he was appointed an ICAC Commissioner. This appointment will take effect in mid-September 2022. \n\n\nRegistration\nFull series (7 webinars) = $300\nIndividual webinar(s) = $50 \n\nCLICK HERE to register \nThis webinar will be released on 9 March 2023.\n \nYou will receive a webinar link on this date\, and can also register at a later date to catch up in your own time.   \n\nAbout the series\nThe 2022-23 Criminal Law CPD series\, presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology is an innovative educational program made up of 7 recorded webinars delivered by eminent speakers from the University of Sydney and the legal profession. \nA new webinar will be released each month from September 2022 – March 2023.
