SUMMARY:Trust in Knowledge Talks - Launch Event
DESCRIPTION:Trust in Knowledge Talks – Launch Event\n  \nIn-person event\nPlease join us at the launch event of the new Trust in Knowledge Talks seminar series – a research initiative supported by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor Research and the Research Portfolio at the University of Sydney. \nReproducibility\, replicability\, transparency and integrity are key attributes that enable excellence in research and research translation. Trust in Knowledge Talks promote these issues\, as well as the sharing of ideas and approaches across disciplines\, to enable discussion and collaboration on producing robust and reliable research across our university community. \nIn this inaugural Trust in Knowledge Talk hosted by Sydney Law School\, guest speaker Professor Simine Vazire from the University of Melbourne asks: where are the self-correcting mechanisms in science? \n  \nAbout the talk\n‘Where are the self-correcting mechanisms in science?’ \nWe often hear the self-correcting mechanisms in science invoked as a reason to trust science\, but it is not always clear what these mechanisms are. Some quality control mechanisms\, such as peer review for journals\, or vetting for textbooks or for public dissemination\, have recently been found not to provide much of a safeguard against invalid claims.  \nInstead\, I will argue that we should look for visible signs of a scientific community’s commitment to self-correction. These signs include transparency in the research and peer review process\, investment in error detection and quality control\, and an emphasis on calibration rather than popularisation. We should trust scientific claims more to the extent that they were produced by communities that have these hallmarks of credibility. Fields that are more transparent\, rigorous\, and calibrated should earn more trust. Meta-science can provide scientists and the public with valuable information in assessing the credibility of scientific fields. \nThe speaker\nProfessor Simine Vazire\, Melbourne School of Psychological Sciences\, University of Melbourne.  \nSimine is a board member of PLOS and the Berkeley Institute for Transparency in the Social Sciences\, was a member of the US National Academy of Science study committee on replicability and reproducibility\, and co-founded the Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science (SIPS). She is Editor in Chief of Collabra: Psychology and has served as editor at several other journals. She has two lines of research. One examines people’s self-knowledge of their personality and behaviour\, and another examines the individual and institutional practices and norms in science\, and the degree to which these norms encourage or impede self-correction and credibility.  \n\nTime: Thursday 19 May\, 5-6pm (followed by a cocktail reception)\nVenue: Sydney Law School\, Law Foyer\, level 2 (street level entrance)\, New Law Building F10\, University of Sydney.  \n \n  \nThis event is presented by the  University of Sydney Law School. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Legal Obligation of the Security Council's mandate on the protection of civilians in UN peacekeeping operations
DESCRIPTION:Legal Obligation of the Security Council’s mandate on the protection of civilians in UN peacekeeping operations\nSpeaker: Dr Tamer Morris\, Sydney Law School\nWhile the Security Council has been mandating peacekeepers to protect civilians since 1999\, there is still confusion on what it means to ‘protect’. Even though the concept of ‘protection’ can seem self-evident\, as UN peace missions are made up of multiple players\, each person has interpreted the protection of civilians mandate differently. As the concept of ‘protection’ is borrowed language\, each body of law will perceive ‘protection’ through a different lens. However\, as the mandate creates a legal obligation on UN peace missions\, a clear understanding of protection is fundamental to ensure performance and accountability. \nSpeaker: Tamer Morris is a casual academic at the University of Sydney teaching in international law. Tamer’s area of research focuses on protection of civilians\, particularly focusing on the legal understanding of the obligation to protect. \nAfter working briefly at the UN\, Tamer’s interests in peacekeeping and international law arose. Tamer’s doctoral thesis\, from the University of Sydney\, was on the legal obligation of the protection of civilians in UN peacekeeping. Focusing on the Security Council’s mandate and legal ramifications of peacekeepers engaging in protection activities. \nModerator: Associate Professor Emily Crawford\, Sydney Law School \n  \nTUESDAY 17 MAY 2022\, 12 – 1pm AEST\nOnce registered\, you will receive the Zoom link closer to the date of the webinar. \n  \nCPD Points: 1 \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Sydney Centre for International Law at The University of Sydney Law School. \nThis is the first in a series of webinars highlighting the research of recently graduated doctoral candidates at The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Direct Jurisdiction in Asia
DESCRIPTION:Direct Jurisdiction in Asia\nThe book Direct Jurisdiction is the second thematic volume in the series Studies in Private International Law – Asia. It considers the situations in which the courts of 15 key Asian states are prepared to hear a case involving cross-border elements. For instance\, will the courts of an Asian state accept jurisdiction in a dispute that has only some\, little or no connection with an Asian state\, and (if so) on what conditions? As a comprehensive survey across multiple jurisdictions and areas of law\, the book suggests that enacting suitable rules of direct jurisdiction requires an Asian state to strike a delicate balance between affording certainty and protecting its nationals. It involves sometimes difficult policy considerations and is not just about drawing up lists of jurisdictional grounds and exceptions to them. \nIn this webinar\, the editors and contributors will summarise the practical and theoretical findings in the book. It will consider the possibility of a multilateral convention or soft law instrument articulating principles of direct jurisdiction for Asia. It will also discuss possible trajectories that Asian states may be taking in respect of direct jurisdiction in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the political tensions currently besetting the world. The editors and contributors will also talk about the process of putting the book together\, especially in the face of lockdowns and other restrictions imposed in various jurisdictions. \nThere will be ample time for Q&A. \n\nSpeakers\n\nProfessor Anselmo Reyes\, Singapore International Commercial Court; Doshisha University\, Editor of Direct Jurisdiction\nWilson Lui\, University of Hong Kong; University of Oxford\, Editor of Direct Jurisdiction\nDr Nobumichi Teramura\, University of Brunei Darussalam; University of Sydney\, Contributor of Direct Jurisdiction\n\nModerator: Professor Vivienne Bath\, University of Sydney Law School\n  \nBook discount offer\nDirect Jurisdiction\, Asian Perspectives:\nAustralian orders – receive 35% off here.\nUK orders – receive 20% off here. \n\nTime: Thursday 17 February\, 6pm AEDT \nThis is a free online event.

SUMMARY:How Private International Law Can Make the UN Sustainable Development Goals a Reality
DESCRIPTION:How Private International Law Can Make the UN Sustainable Development Goals a Reality\n\nThe clock is ticking. We have until 2030 to implement the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals if we are to achieve a “better and more sustainable future for all.” \n\nLaw plays a crucial role in reaching ambitious goals such as ‘No Poverty’ (SDG #1)\, ‘Affordable and Clean Energy’ (#7) and ‘Climate Action’ (#13). But until now\, the role of law in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals has been limited to public international law and relations between nations. Missing from the commentary has been the vital role to be played by private law\, particularly private international law\, which is essential for the implementation of cross-border contracts and the resolution of cross-border disputes. \nAn exciting new project brings together a team of legal experts from around the world to demonstrate how private international law can make each Sustainable Development Goal a reality. \nJoin some of these pioneering legal minds as they discuss the results of their research and the path ahead for our world. \n\n\n\n\nOrder of proceedings\n  \n\n1. Introduction to the SDGs and the project\nProfessor Verónica Ruiz Abou-Nigm and Mr Hans Van Loon \nThese presentations will address the sustainable development goals\, the interaction of and issues presented by private international law\, and the objectives and recommendations of the project. \n2. SDG 9: Industry\, Innovation and Infrastructure\nProfessor Vivienne Bath \nThis presentation will address the impact on\, and interaction of private international law with\, the construction and operation of sustainable infrastructure and the potential role of regulatory private international law. \n3. SDG 15: Life on Land\nDr Drossos Stamboulakis \nThis presentation considers the global governance role that private international law can\, and arguable should\, play in achieving SDG 15 through the facilitation and incentivization of private action geared at environmental protection and sustainability. Chapter written by Dr Stamboulakis and Professor Jay Sanderson. \nChair\nAssociate Professor Stacie Strong \n  \n\nSpeakers\n  \n\nProfessor Verónica Ruiz Abou-Nigm is Senior Lecturer in International Private Law at Edinburgh Law School. Professionally qualified as a solicitor in Uruguay\, with extensive practice in international litigation\, her research focuses on the intersections between private international law and various other disciplines\, within and beyond law\, including maritime law and migration studies.

SUMMARY:Cross-border flow of personal data: globalized Internet and fragmented (inter)national regulations
DESCRIPTION:Cross-border flow of personal data: globalized Internet and fragmented (inter)national regulations\nPersonal data is the fuel of the digital economy. However\, in the globalised world of personal data being used over the Internet\, there is a lack of harmonized international governance mechanisms. A typical example is the ideological\, legal and functional divergence in data regulations between countries in the Asia-Pacific region. \nThis webinar will explore the conflicts and challenges brought by globalized Internet and fragmented international regulations. Using a comparative-law and multilayered approach\, it aims to analyze the potential for future law reform. \nSpeakers and topics\n\nDr Robert Walters\, Victoria University\n\nThe Evolution of Data Protection Law and Cross Border Data Flows in the New Digital Economy. \nThis paper examines the role personal data plays in the evolving digital economy. From its beginning as a rights-based concept\, data was regulated to protect the privacy of individuals over the Internet. Yet\, today\, increasingly as technology evolves this data is being a core component of trade\, business\, law enforcement\, national security\, defense amongst others. This paper explores the rights-based approach to regulating data. It further examines the value of the trade in data\, and how that data is increasingly being used in sectors such as agriculture\, environment\, consumer – customer\, health and education\, transport and infrastructure [ITC]. On the backdrop of the above\, the paper will address a further accentuating question as to how far\, if at all\, the cross-border data flows are being considered in the area of national security and defense. It proposes a way forward by establishing an international harmonised policy approach that\, will assist with future law reform between all nation states. \n\nMr Ken Dai\, Dentons China\n\nRegulatory Restrictions on Cross-border Data Transfer under PIPL and DSL in China. \nWith the enactment of the PRC Data Security Law (DSL) and Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL)\, China has provided the regulatory requirements on dealing with data cross-border\, including the important data and personal data. The proposed discussion will focus on how China has developed the enforcement regime of data cross-border transfer and the impact (such as more data localization setting and the procedure of handling security assessment under certain circumstances) of such arrangement on business operation in Chinese market. \nGraduated from the University of Bristol in the UK\, Ken Dai is one of the pioneering lawyers in China practicing in the area of data protection. Since 2012\, he has been offering professional legal services upon the application and enforcement policies of relevant laws in data and privacy protection sphere for multinational corporations and large-scale enterprises\, including: (1) reviewing and revising privacy policies\, (2) advising on the data protection & privacy issues pertain to employment\, (3) issuing compliance opinions upon cross-border transfer of data\, (4) analysing the feasibility of business modes from the perspective of data and privacy protection\, (5) advising on the data protection & privacy issues pertain to cross-border litigation\, arbitration and investigation\, (6) advising on the legislation and enforcement trend of data protection & privacy\, and cybersecurity\, (7) advising on the intersection between data and competition. Ken was ranked as one of the “Client Choice Top 20 Lawyers” by Asian Legal Business (ALB) in 2014 and 2017\, and as Competition Lawyer of the Year in China by Corporate INTL in 2017. \n\nProfessor Leon Trakman\, University of New South Wales\n\nRegulating Data Flows in the Digital Economy: Ideological\, Legal and Functional Divergence. \nA formidable challenge for national and international regulators is to develop a compatible legal regime to regulate cross border data flows. Their obstacle is to respond to ideological\, legal and functional divergence over data protection across national boundaries. Their task is to remedy the aberrant consequences of regulatory inertia and inconsistency in regulating data flows efficiently and fairly. This presentation explores these obstacles and challenges. It concludes with possible pathways to ensure greater legal harmonisation across nation states. \nModerator\nAssociate Professor Jie (Jeanne) Huang\, Sydney Law School \n  \nFriday 22 October 2021\, 1-2pm AEDT \nYou will receive Zoom details closer to the date of the event. \n  \nThis event is sponsored by the Centre for Asian and Pacific Law at the Sydney Law School. \n  \nBanner image source: Canva

SUMMARY:20th International Arbitration lecture
DESCRIPTION:20th International Arbitration lectureParallel proceedings in international arbitration: theoretical analysis and search for practical solutions\nSpeaker: Salim Moollan QC\n\nAbout the lecture\nThe annual International Arbitration lecture\, presented by Clayton Utz and supported by the University of Sydney Law School\, brings together key figures in international arbitration and the Australian business community to explore the real issues that could affect their international operations\, and how international dispute resolution can contribute to their bottom line. \n2021 marks the 20th anniversary of the International Arbitration Lecture series\, which continues to attract guest speakers from the four corners of the world to give their insights into the challenges facing international arbitration. \nTopic\nParallel proceedings in international arbitration: theoretical analysis and search for practical solutions\nFifteen years have elapsed since the last major effort at analysing the problems arising from parallel proceedings in international arbitration and looking for solutions thereto. This lecture\, which will in part be based on Mr Moollan’s recently delivered Hague Lectures on the topic\, will aim to take a fresh look at this topic – folding in\, inter alia\, the substantial development of investment arbitration during that period and the new issues which this has given rise to. \nAbout the speaker\nSalim Moollan QC specialises in international commercial and investment arbitration. He has acted as Counsel in high profile investment arbitration cases (White Industries v. India\, Philip Morris v. Australia\, Cairn Energy v. India)\, and currently acts as lead Counsel in a number of prominent investment arbitrations for both States and investors. In the commercial field\, he acts in high-value cases in (in particular) the energy and telecoms fields. He frequently sits as arbitrator (party-appointed and chair) in investment and commercial arbitrations. He has an in-depth knowledge of the procedural regimes of all major international arbitral institutions\, being a past chairman and vice-chairman of UNCITRAL\, a past Vice-President of the ICC Court\, a past member of the LCIA Court\, a member of the World Bank’s ICSID Panel of Arbitrators and a former editor of the ICSID Law Review; and having worked closely with these and other institutions in the establishment of an African platform for international arbitration in Mauritius. \nThe holder of a mathematics degree from Ecole Polytechnique\, Paris (in addition to a first class law degree from Cambridge University and to a degree in economics and political science from Sciences-Po\, Paris)\, he also has a unique grasp of technical and quantum expert issues.

SUMMARY:Private International Law and Intellectual Property: the ILA Kyoto Guidelines
DESCRIPTION:Private International Law and Intellectual Property: the ILA Kyoto Guidelines\nIn 2020\, the 79th Conference of the International Law Association passed the Resolution 6/2020 and adopted the Guidelines on Intellectual Property and Private International Law (‘Kyoto Guidelines‘). \nThe Guidelines are part of international efforts to establish a cooperative global system for jurisdiction\, choice of law\, and judgment recognition and enforcement in transnational IP disputes. They apply to civil and commercial matters involving IP rights that are connected to more than one State. \nIn this webinar\, we invite distinguished professors from Japan\, Republic of Korea and Australia to discuss the contents\, implications\, and challenges of the Guidelines in regulating complicated IP disputes. \nSpeakers:\nProfessor Toshiyuki Kono (Kyushu University\, Japan) \nThe background and significance of the ILA Kyoto Guidelines 2020 \nThe ILA Kyoto Guidelines were adopted in December 2020 at the General Assembly of the ILA. I will explain why and how the initiative to create the Kyoto Guidelines started 10 years ago and what its significance is under the current circumstances\, especially after the adoption of the Convention for the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters in 2019. The ILA Kyoto Guidelines adopted innovative approaches. Hence\, a few selected provisions will be explained in detail which include laws applicable to initial ownership and ubiquitous infringement. \nProfessor Gyooho Lee (Chung-Ang University\, Republic of Korea) \nLaws applicable to transferability of an intellectual property right and employment contracts under ILA Guidelines \nTransferability of an intellectual property right is the law of the State for which protection is sought (Article 19 of ILA Guidelines). In this context\, a Korean case will be discussed (Seoul High Court on June 25\, 2020\, Case No. 2019 Na 2013948)\, whose main focus is which law is applicable to split-off of a company. My argument is that\, in this case\, lex loci protection is is the law applicable to transferability of shares of copyright co-owners. Also\, my presentation will deal with applicable laws in connection with employment contracts under Article 23 of ILA Guidelines. In this context\, it will discuss the Korean Supreme Court Decision on 15 January\, 2015 (Case No. 2012 Da 4763)\, which held that the grant of a free non-exclusive licence to an employer by operation of law would be governed by the law applicable to the employment relationship. \nProfessor Vivienne Bath (Sydney Law School\, Australia) \nKyoto Guidelines and injunction in transnational standard essential patents and parallel patent infringement disputes \nThe paper will look at the possibilities presented by the Kyoto Guidelines in view of the current controversy about jurisdiction over rate-setting for standard essential patents and parallel patent infringement cases. \nModerator:\n\nAssociate Professor Jie (Jeanne) Huang (Sydney Law School) \n  \n\n\n——————————————————————————- \nAn English and Chinese translation of the Guideline can be downloaded from here. \nFlow chat of the Guidelines can be downloaded from here. \n——————————————————————————- \n\n\n  \nWebinar time: 3-4pm AEDT \nYou will receive Zoom details closer to the date of the event. \n  \n       \nThis event is jointly sponsored by the Centre for Asian and Pacific Law at the Sydney Law School and International Law Association (Australian Branch). \n  \n(Image sourced from Canva.)

SUMMARY:Unilateralism in (International) Economic Law: the Case of Special Economic Zones
DESCRIPTION:Unilateralism in (International) Economic Law: the Case of Special Economic Zones\n\nThe international economic regime has entered a new phase of reassertion of sovereignty by States. This phase is especially prominent amid the COVID-19 pandemic. \nWhile States continue to show respect for the values of international (economic) law\, the institutionalization of these values has devolved from the international (to the regional) to the domestic level of governance. A new form of ‘unilateral economic law’ is thus gaining importance in the development of international and domestic laws and institutions. \nThis seminar aims to celebrate the launch of the special issue of Journal of International Economic Law on unilateral economic law focusing on Special Economic Zones. \nWe have engaged leading experts from Qatar\, the UK\, India\, and Hong Kong China: \n\n\nSpeakers\nAssociate Professor Georgios Dimitropoulos at the Hamad Bin Khalifa University: ‘Special Economic Zones in International Economic Law: Towards Unilateral Economic Law’ \nPrincipal Researcher Lorenzo Cotula at the International Institute for Environment and Development and Dr Liliane Mouan at the Coventry University: ‘Labour Rights in Special Economic Zones: Between Unilateralism and Transnational Law Diffusion’ \nProfessor James J. Nedumpara at the Jindal Global Law School and Professor Leïla Delphine Choukroune at the University of Portsmouth: ‘WTO Litigation and SEZs: Determining the Scope of Exceptional Trade Unilateralism’ \nProfessor Julien Laurent Chaisse at the City University of Hong Kong: ‘Dangerous Liaisons: The Story of Special Economic Zones\, International Investment Agreements\, and Investor-State Dispute Settlement’ \nModerator\nAssociate Professor Jie (Jeanne) Huang at the University of Sydney Law School (published The Latest Generation of SEZs: Consumer-Oriented Unilateralism in China’s E-Commerce Trade in the special issue). \n  \n \n\n\n  \nWebinar date and time: Wednesday 8 September 2021\, 5-6.15pm AEST \nYou will receive Zoom details closer to the date of the event. \n  \nThis event is sponsored by the Centre for Asian and Pacific Law at the Sydney Law School. \n\n  \nBanner image: Canva
