Workshop organized by Kirsten Schmalenbach
This two-day workshop explores the creation, nature and application of general principles of law in a space outside the traditional framework of State recognition.
The discussions will engage with the International Law Commission’s work on general principles of law, the role of (judicial) interpretation and the impact of non-State entities, such as indigenous peoples, on the identification, determination and application of general principles of law.
The workshop format is designed to enable moderated roundtable discussions among panelists and participants to get the most from our combined expertise and allowing us to reflect on key insights from the panels while also identifying areas for further research and legal development. The workshop seeks to develop and provide a deeper understanding of how general principles of law emerge and evolve beyond the traditional State-recognition framework as envisaged by the ILC and, thereby, furthering the potential for future publications and/or research collaborations
