The Center on Law and Globalization Colloquia are organized to advance the Center’s research mission in ways that promote understanding of the new political alignments and legal practices created by globalization. The colloquia will emphasize interdisciplinary and multinational participation and serve as a platform for promoting deeper understanding and cooperation among related disciplines in the study of law and globalization. Uniquely, the Colloquia seek to bring into conversation leading scholars, international global lawmakers, and journalists who treat globalization. The colloquia will help to identify other projects around the world touching on similar issues and concerns.

Below is some information on our upcoming events.  If you would like to know more please contact Allison Lynch, Center Program Associate, at alynch@abfn.org.
