Young Scholars’ PIL Conference: “Politics and Private International Law (?)” – Program
The following invitation regarding the upcoming young scholars’ PIL conference in Bonn 2017 (see our previous post here) has been kindly provided by Dr. Susanne Gössl, LLM (Tulane), University of Bonn.
We cordially invite all young scholars interested in questions of Private International Law (PIL) to the first young scholars’ PIL conference which will be held on April 6th and 7th 2017 at the University of Bonn.
The conference will be held in German.
The general topic will be
Politics and Private International Law (?)
As our call for papers elicited a large number of highly qualified and interesting responses, selecting the presentations for the conference programme was not easy. In a double-blind peer review procedure, we finally identified nine contributions leading to the following program:
