We hope to learn from one another’s knowledge and experiences to enhance our understanding of and responses to this urgent national issue. Our aim is to start a dialogue between community organisations and researchers that may lead to mutually beneficial research and practice collaborations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday 6 November\, 2024\n\n\n\nTime: Program will be released closer to the dateVenue:  Sydney Law School\, Level 1\, New Law Building Annexe (F10A)\, Eastern Avenue\, University of Sydney\, Camperdown campusCPD points = tbc \n\n\n\nProgram \n\n\n\nClick here to view a copy of the final program (updated 4/11/24). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\nComplimentary\, however registration is essential.Register here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis conference is hosted by the University of Sydney Law School. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence | Lunchtime Event 2024 \n\n\n\nPlease note: Registration for the conference includes the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence lunchtime event. \n\n\n\nIf you would like to register for the lunchtime event only\, register here.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact: If you have questions\, please email: Associate Professor Helen Paterson: helen.paterson@sydney.edu.au \n\n\n\nThis conference is hosted by the University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Law & Sustainability Conference
DESCRIPTION:SMU-Sydney-HKU Law & Sustainability ConferenceLaw\, Sustainability\, and Development: Transforming Pathways in the Asia Pacific Region\nIn-person event \nSydney Law School is delighted to announce that it will host the SMU-Sydney-HKU Law & Sustainability Conference at the University of Sydney on July 11-12\, 2024. \nAbout this event \nThe Asia Pacific region is at a critical point in its pathway to sustainability and faces significant challenges. These include achieving net zero emissions by mid-century\, transitioning to cleaner energy in a manner that is just\, progressing toward a â€˜circular economy’\, ensuring that supply chains remain resilient\, and safeguarding human rights. \nA significant part of the global supply chain is located in the region\, which is growing and urbanising rapidly. Improving access to employment and promoting economic growth\, as well as accelerating progress towards responsible consumption and production\, are important priorities. Meanwhile climate change and biodiversity loss pose major threats. Addressing these concerns will require rethinking development pathways\, and embracing transformative change. \nThe United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) offer a framework for addressing economic\, social\, and environmental sustainability challenges. These goals include eliminating hunger and extreme poverty\, reducing diseases\, reducing inequality\, improving water management and energy\, and tackling climate change urgently. Progress on all 17 goals is â€˜alarmingly slow’\, however\, according to the UN’s Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP\, 2024). Without significant progress\, the SDGs will not be achieved until 2062: some 32 years behind schedule. \nView the program here. \n____________\nThursday 11 – Friday 12 July 2024\nVenue:Â New Law Building (F10)\, University of Sydney (Camperdown Campus)\nRoom to be confirmed\n\nRegistrationÂ \n\nGeneral Attendee fullÂ conference fee (2 day attendance): $200\nStudent/Alumni full conference fee (2 day attendance): $140\n1 day attendance: $120\nSpeaker attendance: (2 day attendance): $140\nDinner ticket: (Thursday 11 July): $80\n\n\n____________ \nThis event is proudly presented by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law\, Centre for Asian and Pacific Law and the Ross Parsons Centre at Sydney Law School at the University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:Call for abstracts: Intersections of Private Law
DESCRIPTION:Call for abstracts: Intersections of Private Law\nA biennial colloquium at the University of Sydney Law School.\n\n\nSydney Law School is pleased to announce the third Intersections of Private Law Colloquium to be held in-person on 5-6 April 2024. We are delighted to invite you to submit an abstract for the Colloquium. \nLast held in 2019 before the pandemic\, Intersections of Private Law is a colloquium series that aims to explore the boundaries\, overlaps and complementary operation of fields of private law with each other and externally. There is much to be explored and discussed in how different fields of private law interact with each other – for example\, contract law with tort or equitable principles\, tort with unjust enrichment – and with other fields of law\, such as criminal law\, corporate law and public law. Even within one field of private law\, there are overlaps and distinctions to be drawn or eradicated – for example\, in tort law\, trespass and nuisance\, intentional wrongdoing and negligence. Interdisciplinary perspectives provide another source of intersection. The Intersections of Private Law colloquium series provides an opportunity for scholars from Australia and overseas to explore these and other overlaps and distinctions within and at the boundaries of private law. \nThe following invited speakers will participate in the Colloquium: \n\nMatthew Dyson\, Professor of Civil and Criminal Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Oxford;\nJodi Gardner\, Brian Coote Chair in Private Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Auckland;\nDonal Nolan\, Professor of Private Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Oxford.\n\nAbstracts should be submitted by email to intersectionsofprivatelaw@gmail.com. Abstracts should be no more than 500 words long. The due date for abstracts is 5 February 2024\, although earlier submissions are welcome. Submissions from early career researchers and full drafts are warmly encouraged. \nWe will send notification of acceptance no later than 19 February 2024. We are happy to distribute any full drafts that we receive two weeks before the Colloquium. \nThere will be a small registration fee for confirmed participants to cover catering costs. There is a separate modest price for the colloquium dinner\, which will be held on 5 April 2024. \nYours sincerely \nOrganisers of the third Intersections of Private Law Colloquium \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by Sydney Law School at the University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:Restoration Law and Finance Conference: Legal and Financial Obstacles to Rehabilitation\, Rehydration and Regeneration of Land and Water and Options for Reform
DESCRIPTION:Restoration Law and Finance Conference: Legal and Financial Obstacles to Rehabilitation\, Rehydration and Regeneration of Land and Water and Options for Reform\nIn-person event \n  \nThe Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law at Sydney Law School invites you to Australia’s inaugural â€˜Restoration Law and Finance Conference’ on Thursday and Friday\, 7 & 8Â December 2023. \nThe Australian Federal Government has committed to â€˜preventing\, halting and reversing the loss of nature’ by signing up to The United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration\, publishing the Nature Positive Plan (2022) and introducing the Nature Market Repair Bill (2023). As stated in the recently released Independent Review of the NSW Biodiversity Act 2016\, chaired by Ken Henry\, it is time to move â€˜beyond biodiversity conservation to a â€œnature positiveâ€ framing that emphasises the need to repair past damage and to take urgent action to halt and reverse biodiversity loss\, putting nature on a path to recovery\, so that thriving ecosystems can support future generations’. \nTo achieve this\, legal and financial barriers to restoration need to be addressed urgently. \nThrough a series of keynotes\, presentations and panel discussions\, the conference will bring together a diverse range of speakers\, including Indigenous experts\, lawyers\, investors\, restoration practitioners and government officials to discuss the legal and financial barriers to restoring nature across a range of land tenures\, and workable solutions to address these issues. Federal initiatives for nature positive repair are unlikely to succeed unless these challenges are confronted head on. \nSpeakers include: Dr Justine Bell-James (Associate Professor\, University of Queensland Law School); Dr Gerry Bates (University of Sydney); Dr Louise Camenzuli (Partner\, Corrs Chambers Westgarth); Dr Emma Carmody (Restore Blue); Rohan Clarke (Regen Farmers Mutual); Raeleen Draper (Senior Natural Environment Project Officer (Blue Heart)\, Sunshine Coast Council); Veda FitzSimonsÂ (Associate Director\, Pollination); Carolyn Hall (CEO and Managing Director\, The Mulloon Institute);Â Dr Ken HenryÂ (Economist\, Non-Executive Director of the Australian Securities Exchange\, Cape York Partnership and Accounting for Nature Ltd.); Fiachra Kearney (Forever Wild); Stella Kondylas (The Nature Conservancy); Jock Mackenzie (EarthWatch); Grantley Smith (Restore Blue); Heidi Mippy (Noongar and This-Man-Warriyangka woman\, Curtin University); Associate Professor Brad Moggridge (University of Canberra);Â Stephen Murphy (Conservation Partners); Claire Smith (Partner\, Clayton Utz);Â Professor Ben Richardson (University of Tasmania Law School); James Trezise (Biodiversity Conservation Council); Laura Waterford (Director\, Pollination);Â Cassandra Stevens (Director\, Kullilli Bulloo River Aboriginal Corporation) \n  \nView the program and read speaker bios here (Updated 7 December 2023) \n  \nThursday 7 – Friday 8 December 2023\nVenue:Â Law Foyer\, Level 2\, New Law Building (F10)\, University of Sydney\, Camperdown campus \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law (ACCEL) at Sydney Law School and is proudly supported by Mills Oakley.

SUMMARY:ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address and Panel Discussions: Legal accelerants for climate action: taking stock for COP28
DESCRIPTION:ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address and Panel Discussions: LegalÂ accelerantsÂ for climate action: taking stock for COP28\nIn-person event \nClimate action is more urgent than ever. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has reached its highest point in at least two million years\, and climate change is causing widespread\, and unequal\, adverse impacts on nature and people (IPCC\, 2023) .Â In order to limit global warming to 1.5Â°C above pre-industrial levels and prevent the worst impacts\, developed countries must reach net zero by 2040\, and emerging economies by 2050. Despite this\, current policies will lead to a 2.8Â°C temperature rise by 2100.Â In a time when we should be accelerating our efforts\, we backslide.Â  \nIn November\, leaders will gather at COP28 for the first global stocktake of the Paris Agreement. The process for preparing the next cycle of Nationally Determined Contributions will also be launched.Â  \nThis event will bring together leading researchers and professionals ahead of the COP to provide insights on how to conceptualise\, develop and implement legal and governance tools to accelerate deep decarbonisation\, adaptation and address loss and damage\, on a whole of economy basis. Against the backdrop of the UN’s 2023 Acceleration Agenda\, experts will discuss the various dimensions of legal acceleration to ensure a more equitable transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient global economy. \nThe 2023 ACCEL Distinguished Address will be delivered by Dr Ian Fry\, Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights in the context of climate change. Dr Fry will discuss important human rights and justice dimensions of the UN’s Acceleration Agenda\, including the need to integrate human rights standards and principles into accelerated climate action.Â  \nThe Distinguished Address will be supported by a series of panels in which leading experts will discuss the role and potential of legal accelerants in the context of climate finance\, climate litigation\, law and nature and the law of the sea. Speakers include Frances Anggadi (University of Wollongong)\, David Barnden (Equity Generation Lawyers)\, Gareth Bryant (University of Sydney)\, Zoe Bush (Environmental Defenders Office)\, Emma Carmody (Restore Blue)\,Â Arjuna Dibley (Sustainable Finance Hub\, University of Melbourne)\, Dominique Hogan-Doran SC (5 Wentworth)\, Tim Stephens (University of Sydney)\, Zoe Whitton (Pollination) andÂ Rachel Walmsley (Environmental Defenders’ Office). \nDraft schedule\n8.30amÂ Registration \n9.00am:Â Welcome and opening remarks \n9.15am: Legal acceleration and the role of climate litigation \nSpeakers:Â Dominique Hogan-Doran SC (5 Wentworth)\,Â David Barnden (Equity Generation Lawyers) andÂ Zoe Bush (Environmental Defenders Office) \n10.30am: Morning tea \n11amÂ Climate finance and accelerated climate action \nSpeakers:Â Arjuna Dibley (Sustainable Finance Hub\, University of Melbourne)\,Â Gareth Bryant (University of Sydney) and Kate Owens (ACCEL) \n12.30pmÂ Lunch \n1.30pmÂ Â Nature restoration and the acceleration agenda \nSpeakers: Gerry Bates (University of Sydney)\,Â Emma Carmody (Restore Blue)\,Â Rachel Walmsley (Environmental Defenders’ Office)\, Rachel Killean (Chair\, University of Sydney) \n3.00pmÂ Afternoon tea \n3.30pmÂ Climate change and the Law of the Sea \nSpeakers: Ian Fry (Special Rapporteur)\, Tim Stephens (University of Sydney)\,Â Â Frances Anggadi (University of Wollongong) and Chester Brown (Chair\, University of Sydney)â€‚â€‚ \n5.00pmÂ Cocktail reception \n5.30pmÂ 2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: Human rights\, climate justice and the UN Acceleration Agenda \nRegistration – now open\n\nFullÂ day: $100\nPanel DiscussionsÂ only: $70\n2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: $40\n\nStudent rates\n\nFull day: $50\nPanel Discussions only: $35\n2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: $20\n\nTuesday 31 October 2023\nVenue:Â Law Lounge\, Level 1\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law (ACCEL) at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Digital vulnerability: Vulnerable individuals and remote access technologies in justice
DESCRIPTION:2023 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nDigital vulnerability: Vulnerable individuals and remote access technologies in justice\nEthics & professional responsibility\nProfessional skills\nPractice Management \nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nThis seminar will focus on the use of remote access technologies\, such as audiovisual links\, when working with vulnerable individuals in the justice system\, and the developing concept of â€˜digital vulnerability’. The seminar will draw on Dr McKay’s current Australian Research Council (â€˜ARC’) funded research and examine the multiple layers of vulnerability that individuals may experience while involved in legal matters. It will present preliminary findings from initial fieldwork interviews with lawyers and judicial officers that reveal critical perspectives on the impacts of digitalisation on vulnerable people in the justice system. While the research project and findings centre on the criminal justice system\, many of the issues are equally relevant to legal practitioners working with vulnerable people in civil matters. \nPresenter \nDr Carolyn McKay is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Sydney Law School where she teaches Criminal Law\, Civil & Criminal Procedure and Digital Criminology. She is CoDirector of the Sydney Institute of Criminology. \nCarolyn is recognised for her research into technologies in justice\, specifically her empirical research into prisoners’ experiences of accessing justice from a custodial situation by audio visual links\, published in her monograph\,The Pixelated Prisoner: Prison video links\, court â€˜appearance’ and the justice matrix (2018)Â Routledge. During the period July 2021 – June 2024\, Carolyn will undertake her ARC Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA) ‘The Digital Criminal Justice Project: Vulnerability and the Digital Subject’. \nCarolyn serves on the NSW Bar Association Innovation & Technology Committee and served on the 2019 NSW Law Society Legal Technologies Committee. She has been a Visiting Scholar at the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies\, University of Oxford 2019 and for 3 months at the OÃ±ati International Institute for the Sociology of Law\, Spain 2013-14. Carolyn has previously consulted on anti-dumping trade disputes and indirect taxation\, working in both Sydney and Tokyo\, and she also has a digital media/visual arts practice. \n\n\nThis webinar will be released on Thursday 29 June\, 2023. \nFind out more about the series.

SUMMARY:Unpicking torts: Elements\, standing requirements and conditions of actionability
DESCRIPTION:Unpicking torts: Elements\, standing requirements and conditions of actionability\nIn-person event\n  \nThere is a fashion for thinking about torts in terms of recipes: as causes of action made up of a fixed set of ingredients. It is fashion that has adherents in both judicial and juristic circles. Typically\, the things that a plaintiff must demonstrate in order to sue in tort are referred to as â€˜elements’ of a tort. But sometimes one comes across talk of the plaintiff’s need to satisfy either a â€˜condition of actionability’ or a â€˜standing requirement’. \nThis change in language when referring to what the plaintiff must show is ostensibly perplexing. It naturally raises the following questions: (1) how\, do the three concepts come apart\, and (2) what significance can be attached to any differences between them? These are the questions with which this paper wrestles. \nThe first contention advanced in the paper is this: while elements and conditions of actionability are in fact discrete juridical entities\, standing requirements are not. The second is that recognising the difference possesses considerable practical and theoretical significance. \nAbout the speaker:\nProfessor John MurphyÂ (The University of Hong Kong) \nJohn Murphy is a Professor at the Faculty of Law\, The University of Hong Kong. He was educated in England and holds undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in law. John specialises in the law of torts\, and he has authored two monographs in the field:Â The Law of NuisanceÂ (Oxford University Press\, 2010) andÂ The Province and Politics of the Economic TortsÂ (Hart Publishing\, 2022). For over a decade he was the editor ofÂ Street on TortsÂ \, and for even longer he has been one of small group of editors responsible for the production ofÂ Clerk and Lindsell on Torts\,Â the leading practitioner work on tort law. \nCommentator: Professor Peter CaneÂ (Sydney Law School) \nThursday 1 June 2023\nTime:Â 6-7.30pmÂ AEST (Seminar from 6-7pm\, with refreshments served afterwards) \nVenue:Â Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points:Â 1 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by Sydney Law School at The University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar | Legalizing Assisted Dying: Are We On A Slippery Slope To Involuntary Euthanasia?
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Legalizing Assisted Dying: Are We On A Slippery Slope To Involuntary Euthanasia?\nIn-person event\n  \nOn 28 November 2023\, theÂ Voluntary Assisted Dying ActÂ will come into effect in NSW. The Act allows ill persons having decision-making capacity\, acting voluntary\, and with less than six months to live (12 months in the case of a neurogenerative illness) to request a prescription of a lethal substance to end intolerable suffering. If the medical practitioners responsible for the assessment of the request confirm that the eligibility conditions are satisfied\, the patient may decide to self-administer the lethal substance or that the substance is to be administered to the patient by a doctor. TheÂ Voluntary Assisted Dying ActÂ was eventually approved on 19 May 2022 after an exhausting and hard-fought parliamentary debate. \nOne of the main reasons justifying the opposition to the bill was provided by a slippery slope argument: The legalization of assisted dying would be a first and decisive step towards the gradual acceptance by public opinion\, medical professions\, and political decision-makers of the medical killing of people unable to consent. Given that this outcome is morally disgraceful\, assisted dying should not be permitted in the first place. Slippery slope arguments are popular in a wide range of debates across bioethics\, law\, and public policy\, and are still extensively used to prevent the legalization of assisted dying in countries such as the UK\, Germany and Italy. Besides\, they are widely employed to prevent policymakers from extending the right to assisted dying to new categories of persons in those jurisdictions where that right is already recognized. \nHowever\, it is highly disputed whether arguments of this sort are able to support their conclusions or should rather be dismissed because ill-grounded. In this seminar I will try to answer this question. To do that\, I will first show that various versions of the slippery slope arguments are actually present in the debate on assisted dying. I will then claim that the only version of the argument that is not ill-grounded supports the opposite conclusion\, namely that the non-recognition of the right to assisted dying may be a first step on the slippery slope to unvoluntary euthanasia in many legal systems. \nAbout the speaker:\nDamiano Canale \nDamiano Canale is Professor of Philosophy of Law and Critical Thinking at Bocconi University\, Milan (Italy). His scholarship mainly focuses on legal reasoning and legal interpretation\, the methodology of jurisprudence\, the relationship between scientific knowledge and legal knowledge\, and the history of legal concepts. He was visiting fellow at the Max-Plank-Institut fÃ¼r EuropÃ¤ische Rechtsgeschichte (Frankfurt a.M.)\, the Yale Law School and the University of Oxford. He is the author of four books in Italian and his papers have been published in journals such as Law and Philosophy\, Ratio Juris\, the American Journal of Law and Jurisprudence\, the Canadian Journal of Law and Jurisprudence\, Jurisprudence\, Informal Logic\, Argumentation. \n  \nThursday 15 June 2023\, 6-7.30pm AEST\nVenue:Â Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points:Â 1.5 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School.Â

SUMMARY:JSI Workshop | Towards a Moralisation of Jurisprudence? Reflections on the Future of Legal Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:JSI Workshop | Towards a Moralisation of Jurisprudence? Reflections on the Future of Legal Philosophy\nIn-person event\nThere is a trend in current Anglo-American legal philosophy that is drawing the attention of legal scholars. We could label this trend â€œThe moralisation of jurisprudenceâ€. Its animating idea is as follows: The questions still left open in contemporary jurisprudence can only be addressed by moral theory. Thus\, there is no longer room for legal philosophy as an autonomous field of enquiry. The seminar aims to critically discuss this thesis from different theoretical perspectives. \nAbout the speakers:\nProfessor Damiano Canale \nDamiano CanaleÂ is Professor of Philosophy of Law and Critical Thinking at Bocconi University\, Milan (Italy). His scholarship mainly focuses on legal reasoning and legal interpretation\, the methodology of jurisprudence\, the relationship between scientific knowledge and legal knowledge\, and the history of legal concepts.

He is the author of four books in Italian and his papers have been published in journals such as Law and Philosophy\, Ratio Juris\, the American Journal of Law and Jurisprudence\, the Canadian Journal of Law and Jurisprudence\, Jurisprudence\, Informal Logic\, Argumentation. \nDr Meir Yarom \nMeir YaromÂ is the inaugural Julius Stone Postdoctoral Fellow. He has recently completed his PhD entitled ‘Reflections on Coherence in Law’ supervised by Jeremy Waldron at NYU School of Law. \nTuesday\, 27 June 2023 2.00 – 4.00pm AEST\nVenue: Â Board Room\, Level 4\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points:Â 1.5 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School.Â

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: The stability of bad things
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: The stability of bad things\nIn-person event\n  \nPolitical philosophers have long been concerned with how best to ensure the stability of social orders. Stability is assumed to be a good\, whether because whatever is good is better for being stably so\, or because stability enables cooperation in the pursuit of whatever other goods we have. \nBut is stability always a good? What of the stability of systems of unfreedom\, of forms of oppression and domination? Such systems are stable in the face of constant efforts to shift them. Why is this? Call this the question of the stability of bad things: why bad things are stable despite the fact that they are bad. \nIn this talk\, I examine one central way in which systems of unfreedom are self-stabilizing: through shaping the moral psychology of agents within those systems. Unfreedom is not just a matter of having limited options for choice\, but of the ways in which social systems foster in us particular ways of thinking\, feeling\, and acting. I argue that there are two ways in which this moral psychological shaping stabilizes systems of unfreedom. First\, it generates support for those systems\, by which I mean not just voluntary upholding of the system but a range of attitudes from consent to resigned participation. Second\, it disrupts possibilities of collective resistance to those systems. Understanding these mechanisms of stability might better help us to first resist\, and then transform\, the systems of unfreedom to which we are all subject. \nAbout the speaker:\nYarran Hominh \nYarran Hominh is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Bard College. His research sits at the intersection of social and political philosophy with moral psychology. He draws liberally from a variety of traditions of thought and practice\, including the pragmatist tradition\, the Black radical tradition\, Buddhist modernism\, and anti-racist\, anti-colonial\, and anti-imperial praxis from around the globe. He is working on a book entitledÂ The Problem of UnfreedomÂ and has papers recently published or forthcoming inÂ Philosophers’ Imprint\, The Pluralist\, the Journal of Legal Philosophy\, Comparative PhilosophyÂ and theÂ Journal of Confucian Philosophy and Culture.Â He is also the Associate Editor of the APA Studies on Asian and Asian American Philosophers and Philosophies and is on the editorial board of The Philosopher. \n  \nThursday 13 July 2023\, 6-7.30pm AEST\nVenue:Â Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points:Â 1.5 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School.Â

SUMMARY:JSI Workshop: Description and evaluation in contemporary jurisprudence
DESCRIPTION:JSI Workshop: Description and evaluation in contemporary jurisprudence\nIn-person event \nModern jurisprudence has been tormented by a divide between description and evaluation in legal theory. Proponents argue that the distinction is essential to any clearheaded discussion of law itself and its relation to adjacent normative systems\, especially morality. Opponents insist that being the necessarily normative practice it is\, a pure description of the law and its theory is untenable. This conversation will bring together legal and moral theorists to shed some novel light on an old problem. \nSpeakers \n\nAssociate Professor Kevin Walton (University of Sydney Law School)\nDr. Yarran Hominh (Assistant Professor in Philosophy\, Bard College)\nDr. Alma Diamond (Postdoctoral Fellow in Law & Philosophy\, University of Chicago)\nDr. Meir Yarom (Postdoctoral Fellow in Jurisprudence\, the Julius Stone Institute\, University of Sydney Law School)\n\n——————————— \nThursday 20 July\, 2023\nTime: 11am-1pm  \nVenue: Level 4\, Board Room\, New Law Building (F10) \nCPD Points: 2 \n———————————- \nThis event is proudly presented by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:2023 Criminal Law CPD Series: Assessing witness credibility: Is it possible to tell whether someone is lying or telling the truth?
DESCRIPTION:2023 Criminal Law CPD Series: Assessing witness credibility: Is it possible to tell whether someone is lying or telling the truth?\n  \nSubstantive Law \nProfessional Skills \nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nWitness testimony can be extremely influential in legal investigations and trials; however\, sometimes witnesses lie. Such deception can be detrimental to due process and can result in miscarriages of justice. Thus\, it is important for legal personnel and factfinders to be able to determine whether someone is lying or telling the truth. \nIn an interactive seminar\, I will discuss research investigating behavioural and content indicators of deception. This seminar will help legal practitioners understand the difficulties in discriminating liars from truth-tellers as well as the evidence-base for various lie detection techniques. \nPresenter \nHelen Paterson is an Associate Professor in Forensic Psychology at the University of Sydney. She investigates the reliability and credibility of eyewitnesses. In particular\, her research focuses on best practice techniques to collect accurate and complete accounts from eyewitnesses. She also studies lies and the detection of deception. \n\n\nA recording of this webinar will be released on Thursday\, 27 July 2023. \nFind out more about the series.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: Epistemic privilege and duties of mutual assistance
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Epistemic privilege and duties of mutual assistance\nIn-person event \nVictims of oppression are sometimes said to have epistemic privilege in virtue of their marginalised social position into the operation and impact of oppressive social structures. Epistemic privilege sometimes is cited as a basis for deference in social relations between victims and non-victimsâ€”for example\, the use of â€˜lived experience’ to resolve or terminate disagreements about social and political oppression. I am interested in whether epistemic privilege can be a basis for duties of mutual assistance between victims\, where assistance is understood as mitigating the harms of oppression on other victims without necessarily targeting oppression itself. I outline the ways in which victims of oppression can be said to have epistemic privilege\, the limits of this privilege\, and what duties of assistance this privilege might ground. \nAbout the speaker:\nAshwini Vasanthakumar \nAshwini VasanthakumarÂ is a political and legal theorist with research interests in political obligation and authority\, migration\, and the ethics of resistance. \nShe is currently an Associate Professor and Queen’s National Scholar in Legal & Political Philosophy at Queen’s Law School in Canada. She holds an AB from Harvard\, an MA from Toronto\, a JD from Yale Law School\, and a DPhil from Oxford\, where she studied as a Canadian Rhodes Scholar. \nPreviously\, she has worked at King’s College London\, the University of York\, University College\, Oxford\, and Jindal Global Law School. She has also been a Researcher at the Institute for Futures Studies (Stockholm) and a Visiting Fellow at the Centre for Fundamental Rights at the Hertie School (Berlin). \n  \nThursday 27 July 2023\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nVenue:Â Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points:Â 1.5 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by theÂ Julius Stone Institute of JurisprudenceÂ at The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Ross Parsons Centre Law and Business seminar | Social enterprise law: A multijurisdictional comparative review
DESCRIPTION:Ross Parsons Centre Law and Business seminar | Social enterprise law: A multijurisdictional comparative review\nIn-person event \nThis 24-nation review of social enterprise law analyzes data developed by a team of academics and practitioners with deep expertise regarding jurisdictions on six continents. Each responded to the authors’ detailed questionnaire inquiring into the relevant jurisdiction’s legal treatment of entities using business methods to achieve social good. After first identifying the key role of political\, cultural and legal baselines in determining the space for and legal treatment of social enterprises\, the paper explores the myriad specialized forms and certifications that have been developed to identify firms around the world as social enterprises. \nLegal forms are offered exclusively by governments and relevant to a single jurisdiction\, while certifications may or may not be public or jurisdiction-specific. Comparing these tools offers guidance to policymakers keen to continue evolving specialized social enterprise forms and certifications across jurisdictions. It also reveals how these identifiers for social enterprise are being used to incentivize the pursuit of social good using business methods. The assurances of trustworthiness provided by distribution constraints and regulatory oversight appear critical to support public subsidization or privileging of social enterprise. Without these protections in place\, public incentives for social enterprise are largely absent \nAbout the speaker \nDana Brakman Reiser holds a chair as Centennial Professor of Law at Brooklyn Law School\, where she also served as Vice Dean. She teaches courses in Corporations\, Nonprofit Law\, Social Enterprise\, Property\, and Trusts and Estates. A globally recognized expert in the law at the intersection of business and charity\, her work on the law of social enterprises – firms that pursue profits for owners and social good – defined the field. She has also written extensively on law and finance for philanthropic organizations and on sustainable investing. \nShe is a member of the American Law Institute and was an Associate Reporter for its project on the Principles of the Law of Nonprofit Organizations\, as well as a past-Chair of the Section on Nonprofit and Philanthropy Law of the American Association of Law Schools and a former member of the executive board of its Section on Business Law.

SUMMARY:The Charles Perkins Centre Annual Lecture 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Charles Perkins Centre Annual Lecture 2023Public health sovereignty and public reason: A comparative perspective\nIn-person event \nYou are warmly invited to the Charles Perkins Centre Annual Lecture 2023 presented by visiting scholarÂ ProfessorÂ Sheila Jasanoff\, the Pforzheimer Professor of Science and Technology Studies at the Harvard Kennedy School. \nDrawing on varied policy responses to the Covid-19 pandemic\, Professor Jasanoff argues that national health policies reflect underlying social compacts regarding the mutual obligations of citizens\, experts\, and the state. This approach helps make sense of wide divergences in measures taken by states worldwide to combat Covid-19 and ensure recovery. \nThisÂ talk challenges conventional understandings of modernity as the product of two trajectories that sustain each other and improve human futures: one of advances in science and technology and the other of social progress. Progress is here imagined as always in-the-making\, riding on the wings of scientific enlightenment. There is no room for backsliding in this view\, only the horizon of greater emancipation. \nBut what if this idea of modernity is itself an imaginary overlaid on less tidy epistemic and political commitments? What if\, instead of perfection through knowledge and reason\, modernity is a patchwork of opaque delegations whereby control over minds\, bodies\, and nature’s workings is handed over to experts with quasi-sovereign power to regulate their respective domains? Empirically exploring these questions provides insights into contemporary debates on populism and loss of trust in science. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nWednesday 2 August\, 2023\nTime: 5.30-7pm AEST \nLocation: University of Sydney Camperdown campus: Venue to be confirmed \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is proudly co-presented by Sydney Law School and the Charles Perkins Centre.

SUMMARY:Book launch: Comparing Online Legal Education
DESCRIPTION:Book launch: Comparing Online Legal Education \nIn-person event \nThe University of Sydney Law School is delighted to invite you to the launch of Comparing Online Legal Education\, co-edited by Professor Luke Nottage\, Sydney Law School\, for the International Academy of Comparative Law. \nThe book will be launched by The Hon. Andrew Bell\, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of NSW\, and previously part-time lecturer at Sydney Law School. \nAbout Comparing Online Legal Education \nThis pioneering work by leading comparative lawyers examines developments in online legal education\, particularly in universities but also in professional associations\, before and especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. \nThe book posits and largely confirms that transformations are linked to the extent and scope of respective legal professions (often\, but not always\, correlating to common versus civil law traditions)\, funding and other aspects of university-level education\, and information and communications technology infrastructure in each jurisdiction. It charts the dramatic shift to online legal education in almost all jurisdictions even with different levels of COVID-19 infections and deaths\, or mobility restrictions imposed by law and/or social norms. It also details how law teachers and students adapted to the challenges and opportunities of new technologies and practices\, sometimes benefitting from serendipitous earlier events supporting online legal education\, and a considerable â€˜reversion to the mean’ as the pandemic has abated. \nThe special reports incorporate extensive empirical data\, including surveys on online legal education experiences. They cover 13 jurisdictions across the Asia-Pacific region (Australia\, Canada\, Brunei\, Malaysia\, Singapore\, Hong Kong\, Macao\, Japan and Pakistan)\, Europe and beyond (Croatia\, Cyprus\, Italy and Seychelles)\, ranging from micro-states to very large economies\, at various stages of economic development and from different legal traditions. Comparing Online Legal Education provides rich resources and lessons for legal academics and professionals\, as well as those involved in education policy. \nFind out more about the book and order it online here.  \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThursday 3 August 2023\nTime: 5.30-6.30pm (Cocktail reception to follow book launch) \nVenue: Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \n\n\nAbout the editors \nLuke Nottage (PhD VUW\, LLD Kyoto) is Professor of Comparative and Transnational Business Law at the University of Sydney\, Associate Director of its Centre for Asian and Pacific Law (CAPLUS) and founding Co-Director of the Australian Network for Japanese Law (ANJeL).

SUMMARY:2023 Wingarra Djuraliyin: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law
DESCRIPTION:2023 Wingarra Djuraliyin: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law\nSydney Law School is proud to host the annual Wingarra Djuraliyin public lecture\, which showcases Indigenous perspectives on law. \nThe Council of Australian Law Deans in 2020 expressed its commitment to aÂ legal system free of systemic discrimination and structural bias against First Nations peoples – this commitment applies to legal education institutions.Â  \nThe recent public lecture by Dr EddieÂ CubilloÂ addressed this topic\, which is of considerableÂ public interest including within the legal academy.Â  \nWe acknowledge the courage of Dr EddieÂ CubilloÂ to address the impact on First Nations Peoples. \nSince the delivery of the lecture\, the University has been informed of ongoing legal issues\, which currently prevent the lecture recording being available for distribution. \nIn-person event \n\n\nSydney Law School is proud to host the annual Wingarra Djuraliyin public lecture\, which showcases Indigenous perspectives on law. \nIn 2023\, the lecture is “One more broken silence: an Indigenous academic encounters racism in the law school 2023”\, delivered by Dr Eddie Cubillo (University of Melbourne Law School). \nThis event is being held to mark the International Day of the World’s Indigenous People\, which is celebrated annually on 9 August. \n2023 Lecture \nOne more broken silence: an Indigenous academic encounters racism in the law schoolÂ  \nIn this lecture\, I question why despite being white-qualified\, having done an LLB\, LLM\, PhD\, I am only seen as â€˜the culture guy’ and only respected enough to do â€˜smoking and acknowledgements’\, why myself and other Blak academics continue to be subjected to casual and pervasive racisms as an everyday occurrence\, and why some of our most prestigious academic institutions continue to be complicit in perpetrating and condoning racism despite all the rhetoric about standing for equity and justice. \nIn 2015\, Wiradjuri man Stan Grant challenged Australians to consider that â€˜The Australian Dream is rooted in racismâ€¦the very foundation of the dream’. Recently\, as Australia tracks towards a referendum on a First Nations Voice to Parliament that 80% of Indigenous people support\, non-Indigenous author Richard Flanagan challenges us to â€˜confront th[e] most terrible truthâ€¦[that] racism experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peopleâ€¦is of a completely different orderâ€¦far more extremeâ€¦[and] so pervasive as to often be invisible to non-Indigenous Australians’. \nThe toxicity of the academy and whether it’s safe for Indigenous staff and students needs to be confronted. It needs to be highlighted that they often are not. First Nations academics often ask each other if it’s all worthwhile. As a country\, we need to acknowledge that the places settlers/non-Indigenous Australians have built for themselves were established by\,Â  andÂ  are sustained by\, racial violence. InstitutionsÂ  can beÂ  unrelentingÂ  inÂ  theirÂ  viciousness towards sovereign Black bodies\,Â  and this viciousness includes the silence of colleagues\, their privilege and their â€˜unconscious biases’. As Richard Flanagan acknowledges â€˜Spend some real time with Aboriginal people and you’ll see how they are still made to live in another country\, and it is frequently a cruel\, pitiless and brutally destructive world.‘ \nSo why am I still here? Why do I\, and other Blak academics continue to subject ourselves to the viciousness and racial violence? For the same reason I call it out in this lecture – As a proud Larrakia\, Wadjigan and Central Arrernte man I put up with the racism because of what I hear constantly from our people on the front-line advocating and delivering services trying their best in a racist world. If I can educate future leaders to respect my people\, I will. My ancestors and elders have faced adversity\, so that I can achieve\, it’s my turn. \n  \nWednesday 9 August\, 6-7.30pm\nCPD points =1.5 \n\n\n\n\nAbout the speaker \nDr Eddie Cubillo is a Larrakia\, Wadjigan and Central Arrente man from the Northern Territory. \nHe is a long time advocate for Indigenous rights and is currently Associate Dean (Indigenous Programs) & Director of the Indigenous Law and Justice Hub at the University of Melbourne’s Law School\, were he has his sights on the decolonisation of legal education and supporting graduates to work towards First Nations Justice. \nEddie’s other past roles include Anti-Discrimination Commissioner of the Northern Territory\, Executive Officer of the National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Legal Service (NATSILS) and Director of Community Engagement in the Royal Commission into the Protection and Detention of Children in the Northern Territory. \nEddie has been a former Chair of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) Yilli Rreung Regional Council\, the North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency (NAAJA) and the Aboriginal Justice Advisory Committee and is currently on the Law Council of Australia’s – Indigenous Legal Issues Committee\, National OPCAT Advisory Group\, Justice Policy Partnership (JPP) under the National Agreement on Closing the Gap\, and the Victorian Treaty Authority Panel. \n\n\n\n\nCatch up on the 2022 lecture \nIn 2022\, the Wingarra Djuraliyin lecture was presented by Professor Anne Poelina and Marlikka Perdrisat\, who spoke on the topic of â€˜First Law: A Climate Chance’. \nWatch here \nThis event is presented by the University of Sydney Law School in collaboration with the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Strategy and Services) at the University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:The Life and Death of States: Author Meets Readers
DESCRIPTION:The Life and Death of States: Author Meets Readers\nIn-person event \nNatasha Wheatley’s bold new bookÂ The Life and Death of States: Central Europe and the Transformation of Modern SovereigntyÂ (Princeton University Press 2023) rediscovers the multinational Habsburg polity as a hothouse for ideas that still shape our understanding of the sovereign state. The radical mismatch between theories of singular sovereignty and the empire’s plural\, layered legal order pushed politicians as well as scholars like Hans Kelsen toward bold new conceptions of the state and the nature of law. The book follows a recurring set of questions about the juridical birth\, death\, and survival of states through the creative experiments of Austro-Hungarian constitutional order and into the domain of international law following the empire’s collapse in 1918. These ideas would echo around the globe in the era of global decolonization that followed the Second World War\, suggesting new ways of understanding Central Europe in the world. \nAbout the speakers\n\nNatasha WheatleyÂ is an historian of modern European and international history\, with broad interests in intellectual and legal history\, Central Europe\, and the history of international law. She was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Sydney before joining the Princeton faculty as an assistant professor in 2017. She is the co-editor of the volumesÂ Power and TimeÂ andÂ Remaking Central Europe\, and her writing has appeared inÂ Past & Present\, History and Theory\, Law and History Review\,Â and theÂ London Review of Books\, among other places.Â The Life and Death of StatesÂ is her first book.\nProfessor Lisa FordÂ is the prize-winning author of three monographs:Â Settler Sovereignty: Jurisdiction and Indigenous People in America and Australia\, 1788-1836Â (Harvard UP\, 2010);Â Rage for Order: The British Empire and the Origins of International Law\, 1800-1850Â (Harvard UP\, 2016)\, co-authored with Professor Lauren Benton; andÂ The King’s Peace: Law and Order in the British EmpireÂ (Harvard UP\, 2021). She recently co-editedÂ The Cambridge Legal History of AustraliaÂ (Cambridge UP\, 2022). Her current project\, on emergency in the British Empire is funded by an Australian Research Council Future Fellowship.\nProfessor Lea YpiÂ is Professor in Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science and an Honorary Professor in Philosophy at the Australian National University. A native of Albania\, she has degrees in Philosophy and in Literature from the University of Rome La Sapienza\, a PhD from the European University Institute and was a Post-Doctoral Prize Research Fellow at Nuffield College\, Oxford University. She is the author ofÂ Global Justice and Avant-Garde Political Agency\, The Meaning of PartisanshipÂ (with Jonathan White)\, andÂ The Architectonic of Reason.Â Her latest book\, a philosophical memoir entitledÂ Free: Coming of Age at the End of History\,Â won the 2022 Royal Society of Literature Ondaatje Prize and the Slightly Foxed First Biography Prize and is being translated into more than twenty languages.

SUMMARY:Can we accommodate independent legal representation for complainants of sexual violence in an adversarial system?
DESCRIPTION:Can we accommodate independent legal representation for complainants of sexual violence in an adversarial system?\nIn-person event \n\n\n\n\nâ€œThe legitimate rights of the accused should be protected and fulfilled. So too the rights of the community.â€Â -Â VLRC\, 2021 \nAustralia has not been immune from calls to strengthen its criminal justice system\, with a series of inquiries over the past seven years considering matters affecting complainants of sexual violence. Despite relying on victims to report crime and cooperate so that the state may prosecute\, the mistreatment of victims remains a subject of academic criticism. \nIndependent legal representation has surfaced as a major factor in reducing secondary victimisation and attrition. While often positioned as solely in the interests of the victim\, it can support the state’s prosecution efforts and lead to improved substantive justice outcomes. \nOn behalf of With You We Can\, this event co-ordinates advocates\, lawyers and academics to discuss models of independent legal representation for victims abroad\, and how we might apply similar principles in Australia. The discussion will be preceded by a short screening of Suzie Miller’sÂ Prima Facie\, a powerful tool to create more developed understanding of our justice system in these contexts. \nSpeakers will be consulting victimologistÂ Michael O’Connell AM APM\, who served as the inaugural Commissioner for Victims’ Rights\,Â Associate Professor Kerstin Braun\, who teaches criminal law and procedure in the School of Law and Justice at the University of Southern Queensland\,Â Eleanor Danks\, an advocate who went through the legal system as a survivor of intimate partner sexual violence while working at the Victorian Office of Public Prosecutions\, andÂ Sarah Rosenberg\, Director and Co-Founder of With you We Can. \n*With You We Can is a victim-led organisation pulling together victims\, advocates and experts to demystify the police and legal processes while working to improve them. \nProgram\n12.30-1.30pm Screening ofÂ Suzie Miller’s film Prima Facie \n1.30-2.30pm Panel discussion \n  \nFriday 18 August 2023\, 12.30-2.30pmÂ AEST\nVenue:Â Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building Annex (F10A)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points:Â 2 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by theÂ Sydney Institute of Criminology The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Meet the author | Reimagining Desistance from Male-Perpetrated Intimate Partner Violence: The role and experiences of female victims-survivors
DESCRIPTION:Meet the author | Reimagining Desistance from Male-Perpetrated Intimate Partner Violence: The role and experiences of female victims-survivors\nHybrid event \nDespite decades of research\, our understanding of IPV desistance processes is very limited. In particular\, understanding of the mechanisms that may account for why some men â€˜stop’ abusing their partners and others persist\, is under-developed. Because IPV occurs within a dyadic and domestic context\, women who are subjected to IPV are not only in a unique position to observe their partner’s behaviours (and how they change over time)\, but also to implement strategies to initiate and support their partner’s desistance. \nThis study involved semi-structured interviews with 40 female victims-survivors of male-perpetrated IPV\, 15 of whom had experienced the cessation or reduction of abuse perpetrated against them for a period of six months or longer. Focusing on the period where participants relationships with abusers were still intact\, the analysis found that victims-survivors were highly agentic actors who implemented a range of strategies to both mitigate their day-to-day risk of violence and support their partners’ long-term behavioural changes. Even in situations where the violence did not stop entirely\, the strategies participants implemented were important for inhibiting escalating patterns of violence and abuse within their relationship. Although their understanding of abusers’ thought processes and motivations was limited by contextual awareness\, participants’ narratives suggested that desistance would not have occurred\, but for their actions. \n\nAbout the author\nDr Hayley Boxall is a criminologist who has been undertaking research on domestic and family violence (including intimate partner violence) and sexual violence for over 10 years. She has published extensively on these topics\, and been a primary investigator on a number of projects focused on criminal justice responses to DFV\, pathways/trajectories into DFV offending and intimate partner femicide\, offending and reoffending patterns of DFV perpetrators and the exploring the nature and prevalence of different forms of DFV and sexual violence. Since 2020 Hayley has been the Manager of the Australian Institute of Criminology’s Violence against Women and Children Research Program\, and is a Course Convenor at the University of Sydney and Griffith University. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThursday 24 August 2023\nTime: 6-7.15pm (Refreshments to be provided) \nVenue: Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \nCPD points:Â 1.25 \nThis event is being held in-person and online at Sydney Law School.
