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 ofÂ China and the International E-commerce and Digital Trade LawÂ 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. \nAboutÂ 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 â€˜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) HuangÂ 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:Should Deceptive Sex Always Be Rape
DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nShould Deceptive Sex Always Be Rape?\nSubstantive Law\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nIt is common for people to deceive other people into engaging in sexual activity with them. But there is sharp division about whether all such deceitful people should be convicted of a sexual offence and\, if all or some of them should\, of which offences they should be convicted. \nThis seminar defends the view that\, whenever an accused person uses deception to induce another person to engage in sexual activity with her or him\, s/he has has knowingly engaged in non-consensual sexual activity with that person. Accordingly\, such accused should generally be convicted of non-consensual sexual offending. But it will also be argued that there are exceptions to this. The person who induces her spouse to engage in sex by fraudulently telling him that she is not having an affair; the Jew who induces a Nazi to participate by telling her that she is not Jewish; the person who procures â€˜consent’ by falsely stating that he is unmarried\, or that he is wealthier than he is; the person who causes a person to â€˜consent’ by lying about her biological sex at birth\, or by failing to disclose an HIV infection that he presents no real risk of transmitting â€” none of them should be held criminally liable. For while\, in each of these cases\, there is no consent\, the law cannot provide absolute protection to sexual autonomy. \nConsideration will be given to recent non-consensual sexual offence law reform in New South Wales (â€˜NSW’) and Queensland. It will be argued that\, while the NSW approach to deceptive sex is better than the prevailing Queensland approach\, it is deficient in certain respects. \nPresenter \nDr Andrew DyerÂ is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Sydney Law School\, having been appointed the inaugural Colin Phegan Lecturer in Legal Reasoning in 2014. A graduate of Sydney Law School and the London School of Economics\, Andrew began his working career not as a lawyer\, but in television\, acting in and writing for various sketch comedy shows. He then worked at a large commercial law firm; as tipstaff to a judge of the NSW Court of Appeal; and\, immediately before coming to Sydney Law School as a sessional lecturer in 2010\, as a Researcher at the Judicial Commission of NSW. \n\n\n\nRegistration\nFull series (7 webinars) = $300\nIndividual webinar(s) = $50 \n\nCLICK HERE to register \nThis webinar will be released on 29 September 2022. \n\n\n\n\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:Book launch and in conversation with Professor Wojciech Sadurski
DESCRIPTION:Book launch and in conversation with Professor Wojciech Sadurski\nIn-person event \nThe University of Sydney Law School is delighted to invite you to the launch of A Pandemic of Populists by Professor Wojciech Sadurski\, Challis Chair in Jurisprudence\, Sydney Law School. \nThe book will be launched by Professor Simon Bronitt\, Dean of Sydney Law School\, followed by in-conversation discussion with the author and Professor David Kinley\, Professor of Human Rights Law at the Law School. \nAbout A Pandemic of Populists \nOver the last decade\, the world has watched in shock as populists swept to power in free elections. From Manila to Warsaw\, Brasilia to Budapest\, the populist tide has shattered illusions of an inexorable march to liberal democracy. Eschewing simplistic notions of a unified global populism\, this book unpacks the diversity and plurality of populisms. \nIt highlights the variety of constitutional and extraconstitutional strategies that populists have used to undermine the institutional fabric of liberal democracy and investigates how ruling populists responded to the Covid-19 crisis. Outlining the rise of populisms and their governing styles\, Wojciech Sadurski focuses on what populists in power do\, rather than what they say. Confronting one of the most pressing concerns of international politics\, this book offers a vibrant\, contemporary account of modern populisms and\, significantly\, considers what we can do to fight back. \nâ€˜Wojciech Sadurski is one of the world’s leading constitutional theorists; not for nothing has he been subject to the wrath of right-wing populists in his native Poland. With this masterful volume\, he brings together a sophisticated analysis of what populists in power do to institutions with personal stories as well as new ideas how to defeat populists.’ Jan-Werner Mueller\, Princeton University \nThe book will be available for purchase on the evening\, or order online here.  \nFind out more about the book. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nTUESDAY 20 SEPTEMBER 2022 \nTime:Â 6-7.30pm (including a cocktail reception) \nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School. \nLocation: The University of Sydney\, Camperdown. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \n\n\nAbout the author \nWojciech Sadurski is Challis Professor of Jurisprudence at the University of Sydney and Professor of the Centre for Europe at the University of Warsaw; formerly Professor and Head of Department of Law at the European University Institute in Florence. He is author of several books\, most recently Poland’s Constitutional Breakdown (2019) and Constitutionalism and the Enlargement of Europe (2012).

SUMMARY:Underutilisation of ADR in ISDS: Resolving Treaty Interpretation Issues
DESCRIPTION:Underutilisation of ADR in ISDS: Resolving Treaty Interpretation Issues\nOnline event \nOver the years\, it has become evident that arbitration is the favoured dispute resolution mechanism over conciliation/mediation in investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS). This is due to the benefits of arbitration (binding process with final\, enforceable award) over the shortcomings of conciliation/mediation (non-binding process with non-enforceable settlement agreements). Therefore\, incentives\, such as the recent adoption of the Singapore Convention on Mediation and proposed amendments by ICSID\, are deemed promising developments for the promotion of more alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanisms in ISDS. \nThis study advances a hypothesis that\, apart from the non-enforceability of settlement agreements\, there may be an additional and\, as a matter of fact\, the principal cause for the underutilisation of conciliation in ISDS. The common formulation of ISDS clauses\, that carry advance consent to conciliation and arbitration in investment treaties\, suggests that the choice between these two may have conflicting interpretations. Under one interpretation\, disputants have an option to choose conciliation and then proceed with arbitration; the other interpretation suggests that selection of conciliation is to the exclusion of arbitration. This is also supported by anecdotal evidence where claimants have had an impression that the â€˜fork in the road’ principle applied to the choice between conciliation and arbitration\, and that\, therefore\, recourse to conciliation regardless of the outcome would jeopardise their right to subsequent arbitration. Based on these observations this study argues that the adoption of the Singapore Convention on Mediation will most probably not be enough to promote more ADR in ISDS. In particular\, recourse to investor-state conciliation (and mediation) will not increase unless mediation/conciliation are made mandatory before arbitration\, and the source of conflicting interpretations of the choice between conciliation and arbitration is eliminated. \nUbilava\, A.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: Children\, families\, and immigration enforcement
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Children\, families\, and immigration enforcement\nSpeaker: Associate Professor Matthew Lister\, Bond University \nWhat might otherwise seem like straight-forward instances of immigration enforcement can give rise to both practical and moral complications when the objects of the enforcement measures are children and/or have close family ties to citizens or legal permanent residents. In the case of children\, we may doubt whether they can be held morally responsible for immigration violations and may also face complicated questions about the best interest of the children. \nWhen an otherwise removable non-citizen has close family ties to a citizen or permanent resident\, we may worry that removal will both impose disproportionate harms on the one removed and will also cause unacceptable harms on\, and violate the rights of\, citizens or permanent residents. \nIn this seminar\, Matthew Lister will try to isolate the issues\, both practical and moral\, and look at what sorts of limits they place on otherwise acceptable instances of immigration enforcement. \nAbout the speaker:\nMatthew Lister is an Associate Professor at Bond University. He is a legal and political philosopher as well as a lawyer who works on normative issues relating to immigration and refugee law\, international law\, including international economic law and regulation\, workplace and employment law\, criminal law\, and other issues in jurisprudence and political philosophy. \n  \nThursday 15 September 2022\, 6-7.30pm AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: Jealousy of trade\, from the Scottish Enlightenment to neoliberalism
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Jealousy of trade\, from the Scottish Enlightenment to neoliberalism\nSpeaker: Associate Professor Jessica Whyte\, UNSW \nIn this talk\, I trace the Scottish Enlightenment debates about what David Hume termed â€œjealousy of tradeâ€â€”that is\, the transformation of international commerce into a political concern of states and a cause of international conflict. I revisit these debates – in a context marked by new trade wars and military conflicts within a highly integrated global economy – in order to propose a new understanding ofÂ neoliberalism. Against the dominant understanding of neoliberalism as primarily an economic ideology\, I argue that early neoliberals (notably Friedrich Hayek and Ludwig von Mises) drew from the Scottish Enlightenment to portray market competition as the necessary condition not of economic efficiency but of social and international peace. Against laissez-faire\, they portrayed the market (and peace) as a legal order\, not a natural order. In this vein\, they also pioneered new forms of economic coercion to restrict the options of democratic polities\, and to pacify market societies. \nAbout the speaker:\nJessica Whyte is Scientia Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of New South Wales with a cross-appointment in the Faculty of Law. Her work integrates political philosophy\, intellectual history and political economy to analyse contemporary forms of sovereignty\, human rights\, humanitarianism and militarism. She is the author ofÂ Catastrophe and Redemption: The Political Thought of Giorgio Agamben\, (SUNY 2013) andÂ The Morals of the Market: Human Rights and the Rise of NeoliberalismÂ (Verso\, 2019). \n  \nThursday 25 August 2022\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: The Conscience of Trust
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: The Conscience of Trust\nSpeaker: Professor Irit Samet\, King’s College London \nAt the heart of the modern trust lies a glaring paradox: how has a legal institution that is repeatedly referred to by the courts as rooted in a duty of conscience become infamous for helping individuals to achieve goals that are patently unconscionable? \nWith every brazen leak of documents from offshore jurisdictions and the ensuing investigation into the financial affairs of the super affluent\, it becomes clear that the trust is now a widely used vehicle for evading duties owed by property owners to creditors\, dependants and the community. A dangerous trend of importing practices and trust structures from offshore jurisdictions to established onshore trust regimes threatens to further accelerate the corrosion in the reputation of the trust. Any comprehensive solution for the acute legitimacy problem faced by the trust must be multi-systemic. \nIn this paper\, I focus on one aspect of it: the normative basis for the trust obligation. Looking at the conceptual edifice that underlies the trustee’s obligations\, the paper argues that what worked for the problems that afflicted traditional trust relationship may not be suitable when facing the challenges of modern trusts. However\, the way in which the concept of â€˜conscience’ functions in this area of the law can be useful for reformers who wish to protect (what is left of) the good name of trusts. In particular\, it can help us build the necessary moral authority for recent judicial interventions that aim to undo the damage of reckless offshore trust forms. I look into the way the courts of equity lift the concept of conscience from moral discourse and what this means for the moral standing of beneficiaries to make claims on the basis of trusts that are designed to create â€˜orphan property’. \nAbout the speaker:\nIrit Samet is a Professor in the Dickson Poon School of Law\, which she joined in 2008. She was previously a Lecturer in Law at Mansfield College\, Oxford (2006-2007)\, and a lecturer at the University of Essex (2008). She read law and philosophy in Israel and completed her doctorate at Oxford. Her main research interests lie in the Law of Equity\, Property Law\, and the theory of private law. She published papers on these subjects in leading journals (like OJLS\, MLR)\, and her book on the theory of Equity Law was published by OUP in 2018. She is a course convener for the undergraduate module of Equity and Trusts\, and teaches philosophy of property law as an option B part of the Jurisprudence course\, and research seminars in property law. \n  \nThursday 18 August 2022\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: Flourishing in the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Flourishing in the Anthropocene\nSpeaker: Associate Professor Nicole Graham\, Sydney Law School \nProgressive property theory presents a recent corrective to atomistic theories that isolate property interests from the network of relations and obligations arising from the sociality of organised human society. The â€˜social obligation norm’ that underpins progressive property theory stretches back to Aristotle’s philosophy of eudemonia (â€˜human flourishing’ or â€˜living well’) written in the 4th Century BC. But property is not timeless; the world has changed. The rise of global greenhouse gas emissions above pre-industrial levels is rapidly transforming the climate of the planet – presenting an existential crisis on a scale far greater than the individual\, society\, and species. For millennia\, Western theories of property\, including progressive property\, have been dominated by anthropocentric notions of law and land. However\, the concept of community\, central to progressive property theory\, foregrounds and prioritises both materiality and relationality\, making possible a more viable theory of human-earth relations for the 21st Century. The arrival of the Anthropocene calls for a planetary understanding of â€˜community’ that encompasses its disowned human and more-than-human members\, whose labour in Capital’s shadow lands provide the conditions of modern Western proprietorship. â€˜Living well’ through the 21st century will involve reframing social obligation as existential imperative to model a viable property regime. \nAbout the speaker:\nDr Nicole Graham is an Associate Professor at the University of Sydney Law School. She teaches and researches in the fields of property law and theory\, and legal geography. Nicole has written on the relationship between law\, environment and culture with a particular focus on property rights\, natural resource regulation and the concept of place. \n  \nThursday 11 August 2022\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Exhibition launch: Iconic: The Use and Misuse of the Red Cross Emblem
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition launch: Iconic: The Use and Misuse of the Red Cross Emblem\n\n\nProfessor Robert McLaughlin (ANU) will formally launch the exhibition\, created by Associate Professor Emily Crawford (Sydney Law School.) \nThe Red Cross is one of the most identifiable icons of all time – since its adoption in the 19th century\, the Red Cross emblem has come to symbolise care and protection for people who are sick or injured. \nThe Red Cross can be seen everywhere – on toys\, medical supplies\, and costumes. However\, the Emblem is not meant to be a logo – it is symbol that has its origins in an international law designed to protect the wounded and sick members of the armed forces during times of armed conflict\, as well as to protect the persons who care for the wounded and sick. The Red Cross\, and its associated Emblems\, the Red Crescent\, Red Crystal\, and Red Lion and Sun\, are meant to be used to denote the care and protection of the most vulnerable populations during times of armed conflict\, and in certain strictly regulated situations outside of armed conflicts. \nThe iconic nature of the Red Cross emblem\, and its connotations of care and protection\, has seen the Emblem misused and misapplied in manifold ways. What many do not know is that the Emblem is protected under both international and domestic law\, and misuse of the Emblem is an offence under Australian law and may be\, in specific circumstances\, a war crime under international law – this includes both misuse of the Red Cross emblem\, as well as displaying a white cross on a red background. \nIconic: The Use and Misuse of the Red Cross Emblem showcases some of the most common ways the Emblem has been misused in every day life. The aim of the exhibition is to educate and inform people that the Red Cross has a special meaning that should not be devalued. The objects on display are shown in conjunction with the selections from the University’s rare book collection\, which illustrate how the Red Cross came into being\, how it has been protected in law\, and how it has been used on practice in the century and a half since its inception. \n\n\n\n\nThursday 4 August\, 5-6pm AEST\n(includes exhibition launch and cocktail reception) \nLocation:Â Fisher Library\, Seminar Room\, Level 2\, Eastern Avenue\, The University of Sydney\, Camperdown. \nThis is an in-person event being held at The University of Sydney with limited capacity. \n  \n\n\nThe launch is sponsored by the Sydney Centre for International Law at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Ross Parsons Centre Law & Business seminar: SPACs\, Direct Listings\, and SEC Reform
DESCRIPTION:Ross Parsons Centre Law & Business seminar: SPACs\, Direct Listings\, and SEC Reform\nPresenter: ProfessorÂ Andrew Tuch\, Washington University in St Louis \nDespite recent market volatility\, mergers of special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) and direct listings remain viable alternatives to IPOs in the United States. SPACs continue to outnumber traditional IPOs. Direct listings have allowed companies\, including Slack\, Palantir\, and Coinbase\, to go public. \nHowever\, SPAC mergers and direct listings sidestep basic investor protections that apply in the traditional IPO process\, including underwriter liability. Increased reliance on these IPO-alternatives is part of a increasing trend in the US of companies accessing capital without subjecting themselves to the rigors of public market regulation. In response\, the SEC released highly anticipated reforms proposing wide-ranging changes. \nThis presentation will consider these IPO-alternatives\, market trends\, and recently proposed SEC reforms. \nAbout the presenter:\nAndrew TuchÂ is a professor of law at Washington University in St Louis. He has published widely in the US\, the UK\, and Australia\, and his scholarship has been cited by Australian and US courts\, including numerous times by the Delaware Court of Chancery. He has served on the National Adjudicatory Council for the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)\, the primary regulator for U.S. brokers and dealers. Before entering academia\, he practiced corporate law in New York and London. He holds LLM and SJD degrees from Harvard Law School\, where he was a Fulbright Scholar. He is Australian. \nChair:Â Jason Harris\, Professor of Corporate Law\, Sydney Law School \nCommentator:Â Daniel Scotti\, Partner\, MinterEllison\, Sydney \n  \nWebinar via Zoom\, Tuesday 26 July 2022\, 8am AEST \nOnce you register\, your confirmation will provide the Zoom details. \n  \nThis seminar is sponsored by theÂ Ross Parsons CentreÂ atÂ Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:How AI is changing medical practice
DESCRIPTION:How AI is changing medical practice\n\n\nThis event has moved to online only \nSydney Ideas is delighted to welcome back Professor Frank Pasquale (Brooklyn Law School)\, a leading author and academic on the law of artificial intelligence (AI)\, algorithms\, and machine learning\, along with local experts to unpack the challenges and advantages of AI and how it is changing medical practice. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe potential for AI and its ability to improve how healthcare is delivered is well documented.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: American nullification and secession: the case for constitutional flexibility
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: American nullification and secession: the case for constitutional flexibility\nThis event is being held online and in-person at Sydney Law School. \nSpeaker: Professor Kit Wellman\, Washington University in St LouisÂ \nAmericans live in a political marriage arranged by our ancestors. The good news is that the framers of our Constitution were brilliant; the bad news is that things have changed so dramatically since our predecessors planned our political nuptials that prominent legal theorists are now suggesting that we should fundamentally alter\, if not disband\, the Union. The urge to re-evaluate our constitutional order stems in part from the striking cultural and political divisions among contemporary Americans. In light of these cleavages\, legal scholars are revisiting the long-neglected ideas of nullification\, interposition\, and secession. \nIn this essay\, I review recent monographs by Timothy William Waters and F.H. Buckley along with an anthology edited by Sanford Levinson. I am more interested in highlighting the important questions these theorists raise about the constitutionality\, morality\, and advisability of these measures than I am in advancing any particular position. At least two striking conclusions seem warranted\, though. First\, we urgently need social scientific data on the potential costs and benefits\, not only of state-breaking\, but also of institutionally protecting secessionist rights. And second\, given the increasing enthusiasm for the right to secede\, it would be rash to summarily dismiss the more moderate option of nullification. \nSpeaker:\nâ€‹Professor Kit WellmanÂ works in ethics\, specializing in political and legal philosophy. He serves as chair of the education department and is dean of academic planning for Arts & Sciences. \n  \nThursday 30 June 2022\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: Primary Duty = Secondary Duty?
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: Primary Duty = Secondary Duty?\nThis event is being held online and in-person at Sydney Law School. \nSpeaker: Professor Claudio Michelon\, Edinburgh Law School\nThis paper addresses one of the central questions in the law of torts: what is the relationship between the primary duty and the secondary (or remedial) duty? The two dominant answers to that question (the continuity thesis and the identity thesis) stand in a complex relationship that is not yet fully understood and\, as a result\, the arguments for and against each thesis are muddled. \nThe paper clarifies each thesis\, defends each rival against objections that have been levelled against them and\, at the end\, present reasons why an original version of the continuity thesis offers a better framework within which to understand the relationship between primary and remedial duty. \nAbout the speaker:\nBefore his appointment for the chair of Philosophy of Law\,Â Professor MichelonÂ was a lecturer (2007-2010) and Senior Lecturer (2010-2015) at Edinburgh Law School. Between 2002 and 2007 he lectured at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul\, while also practicing as a lawyer. Over the past decade or so\, he held a number of visiting positions\, amongst which the HLA Hart Visiting fellowship at Oxford (2007)\, and a British Academy Visiting Fellowship (2006-7). Between 2007 and 2011 he was the Secretary General of the International Association for Philosophy of Law and Social Philosophy (IVR). He is a co-editor of Routledge’s Critical Studies in Jurisprudence series and part of the editorial board of Springer’s Law and Philosophy Library and of a number of journals. He is currently the Director of the Edinburgh Centre for Legal Theory. \n  \nThursday 23 June 2022\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:2022 Paul Byrne Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:2022 Paul Byrne Memorial Lecture: They’re all good cases: Paul Byrne SC\nDelivered by Justice Peter Hamill\nPaul Byrne was one of Justice Peter Hamill’s most important mentors. His Honour thought he would use the opportunity\, at what would have been\, but for Covid\, the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the Paul Byrne SC Memorial Lecture\, to speak about the man himself. \nJustice Hamill will speak about the contributions Paul made to the law though his work at all levels of the criminal justice system\, his quirks and eccentricities\, his passions\, and his approach to the art of persuasion. \nThe lecture will be a personal and professional memoir of a man who so many people loved and admired. \nIt will cover some of Paul’s triumphs in the High Court on critical issues in the criminal law like identification evidence (Domican)\, the prosecutor’s duty of disclosure (in Grey)\, relevance (in Mundarra Smith)\, judicial and apprehended bias (in Antoun) and obtaining special leave where a point was not taken in the courts below (Crampton). \nJustice Hamill will also share some of Paul Byrne’s wisdom about court craft and advocacy\, the benefits of courtesy\, aspects of cross-examination and â€œreading the roomâ€\, that is the Court room. The lecture may meander into more esoteric subjects such why expert witnesses should not wear bow ties and Paul’s unique approach to financial investment. There may be some discussion of racing cars. \nHis Honour hopes his speech will be both educational and entertaining\, but mainly hopes to share some stories about one of Australia’s finest criminal defence lawyers. \nAbout the speaker\nJustice Peter Hamill was sworn in as a judge of the Supreme Court in April 2014. His Honour began his legal career as a clerk in the Court of Petty Sessions and achieved his legal qualifications by studying part time for the Barristers’ Admission Board examinations. His Honour worked as Justice Mary Gaudron’s Associate in the High Court before commencing practice at the Bar in 1988. \nHe was a renowned criminal barrister and founding member of Forbes Chambers where he practised for over 25 years\, taking silk in 2004. His Honour was briefed in many trial matters by the Western Aboriginal Legal Service during this time and appeared at all levels of the criminal justice system\, from the Local Court to the High Court\, appearing in more than 150 criminal appeals. \nHis Honour also worked on some of the state’s most significant coronial inquests and commissions of inquiry including for the family in the police killing of Roberto Curti\, for Keli Lane at the inquest into the disappearance of her daughter and for NSW police at the judicial inquiry into the conviction of Phuong Ngo. His Honour is known for his unique catchwords\, and a bold and humane approach to the law. \nPaul Byrne SC was one of his most important mentors and he still has a small shrine in his chambers so that he will never forget Paul’s wisdom and humanity. \n  \nWEDNESDAY 22 JUNE 2022\nTime:Â 6-7.30pmÂ (followed by a cocktail reception) \nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School. \n  \nCPD Points:Â 1.5 \n  \nThe Paul Byrne Memorial Fund\nThe Paul Byrne Memorial Fund was set up to honour and continue Paul’s interest in the criminal justice system by supporting the ongoing activities of the Institute of Criminology\, such as lectures\, seminars\, publications\, and awards. Attendees of the Paul Byrne SC Memorial Lecture are warmly invited to make a donation to The Paul Byrne SC Memorial Fund. \nGifts to The Paul Byrne SC Memorial Fund support the activities of the Institute of Criminology and other activities in the field of criminal law at Sydney Law School\, in memory of the late Paul Byrne SC. \n  \nThis event is proudly hosted by the Sydney Institute of Criminology\, highlighting the Institute’s support of critical criminal justice research\, practice\, policy and debate.

Food systems governance is not limited to laws and regulations developed by government. It also includes practices\, actions\, and advocacy by a wide range of actors to create policies and change decision making structures. \nThe webinar will include a dialogue between civil society representatives and researchers from Canada\, the US and Australia\, exploring the role of civil society organizations in food system governance. We will unpack the motivations\, opportunities\, challenges\, and lessons learnt from collaborative forms of food system governance. We will also reflect on lessons learnt from the various models of collaborative food system governance\, such as food policy councils and networks\, across the three countries. \nRecent research will set the stage for representatives from each country to share their experiences of engaging in food system governance. Discussions emerging from the webinar will contribute to future comparative research on the role of civil society organizations in food systems governance in the US\, Australia\, and Canada. \nA second event later in June will focus on the issues of equity and inclusion in food system governance\, as well as Indigenous-settler relations.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar: The Modern Approach to Statutory Interpretation
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar: The Modern Approach to Statutory Interpretation\nSpeaker: Professor Dale Smith\, The University of Melbourne\nIt is now common\, in Australia and in a number of other jurisdictions\, to speak of â€œthe modern approach to statutory interpretationâ€. Many of the details of this approach are unclear or contested. However\, the modern approach consists at least of a rejection of literalism\, and an emphasis on the importance of considering the statutory text in context and in light of the statutory purpose. \nAs such\, the modern approach can be characterised as a pluralist account of statutory interpretation. Indeed\, it is sometimes summarised in the slogan â€œtext\, context and purposeâ€. \nIn this seminar\, Professor Dale Smith identifies three sets of questions raised by the modern approach. These questions concern what\, precisely\, is meant by â€œtextâ€\, â€œcontextâ€ and â€œpurposeâ€\, what role these three factors play in statutory interpretation (e.g. are they relevant in their own right or merely as evidence of something else?) and what should be done in cases where those factors push in different directions. \nHe argues that\, to the extent that adherents of the modern approach have addressed these questions\, they have disagreed among themselves about the correct answers\, and he explores some of the difficulties confronting the various answers that have been offered to date. \nSpeaker:\nDale Smith’s research focuses primarily on analytic legal philosophy\, especially the jurisprudential writings of Ronald Dworkin. He also writes on theoretical aspects of statutory interpretation and (with Colin Campbell) on anti-discrimination law. \nDale’s research has been published in the Oxford Journal of Legal Studies\, Legal Theory\, Law and Philosophy\, the Modern Law Review and the University of Toronto Law Journal. \nDale graduated from the University of Melbourne in 1998 with first class honours degrees in Law and Arts. He also holds a Masters of Arts in Philosophy from the University of Melbourne and a D.Phil in Law from the University of Oxford. His doctoral thesis was on the implications for adjudication of the debate between moral objectivists and anti-objectivists. \nPrior to joining Melbourne Law School in 2014\, Dale was a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Law at Monash University. He was a Visiting Fellow at the Surrey Centre for Law and Philosophy at the University of Surrey in 2019\, and a Visiting Academic at the Faculty of Laws\, University College London in 2012. \nDale is a past Editor of the Australasian Journal of Legal Philosophy\, and a past Treasurer of the Australasian Society of Legal Philosophy. He is currently the Associate Dean (Research) at Melbourne Law School. \n  \nThursday 26 May 2022\, 6-7.30pmÂ AEST\nThis event is being held an online and in-person at Sydney Law School.
