SUMMARY:Golem Seminar Series - Post-Imperial Unions: Constitutional Alternatives to Empire and Nation-State
DESCRIPTION:What if the EU were not a historical anomaly\, but part of a broader – now largely forgotten – global pattern? \nThis project introduces ‘post-imperial unions’ as a conceptual frame to bring under one lens a range of political and constitutional phenomena until now studied in isolation. These include the EU\, the Commonwealth\, l’Union française\, the Soviet Union\, Rigsfællesskabet\, the West Indies Federation\, federal constitutional schemes for Africa’s and British Raj’s post-imperial futures and interwar schemes to federalize the Chinese empire. Devised between WWI and the 1960s\, these projects offered constitutional alternatives to nation-states in response to the transformation of the global order brought about by imperial decline. If the EU is an outlier\, it is not because it lacks historical peers\, but because it turned out to be one of the most lasting unions born of a once-global search for political associations beyond empire and nation-state. \nPost-Imperial Unions will undertake the first global comparative study of the constitutional projects of post-imperial unions. The aim is not simply to reconstruct overlooked constitutional projects but to transform the way we think about constitutions and the types of political associations they can facilitate and bring about. Through comparative archival work in London\, Cambridge\, Oxford\, Paris\, Florence\, Delhi and Kolkata\, and interdisciplinary collaborations\, the project will map the constitutional pattern\, explore the constitutional ideas\, and assess the constitutional implications of post-imperial unions. In doing so\, Post-Imperial Unions contests the nation-state centred model of constitutions and seeks to build the foundations for novel way of conceptualising\, studying and teaching constitutional law and theory. Beyond constitutional studies\, Post-Imperial Unions advances global political thought by shedding light on the overlooked constitutional dimension of post-imperial projects beyond the nation-state. \nSpeaker: Signe Larsen (Warwick) \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:General Counsel Masterclass | Session 3
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this course is designed for LSE Law/Law and Finance students ONLY. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\nCertificates will be provided to participants who attend all three sessions.  \nThis three-part Masterclass offers an inside look at the world of the modern General Counsel — one of the most consequential and least understood leadership roles in business today. \nDrawing on Bjarne Tellmann’s three decades of legal practice\, including seventeen years as General Counsel of global public companies\, the series explores how the GC role has evolved from legal adviser to strategic leader\, risk architect\, and institutional navigator. \nThe series follows a deliberate arc: from the macro forces reshaping the profession\, to the micro realities of life inside a legal department\, and finally to the personal choices and capabilities that define career success. \nThe goal is to equip students with a clear lens on how the legal profession is changing\, and what it now demands of those who want to thrive within it\, whether in a law firm\, in-house\, in academia\, or with a legal services provider. \nSession 3 – (Drinks reception to follow after the event) \nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You. Lessons from a GC \nThe path of a successful legal career is rarely linear. \nIn this final session\, we turn from institutions to individuals: how careers are built\, how opportunities emerge\, and what it really takes to thrive as a lawyer in a profession undergoing rapid transformation. \nWe will draw on Bjarne’s own journey\, which took him from law school to law firms\, and then to global companies\, moving across continents and industries. In so doing\, we will discuss the organic and often unpredictable nature of the legal career path. Serendipity matters. So does curiosity – and the willingness to take risks rather than remain trapped by “golden handcuffs.” \nWe will talk candidly about the differences between life in a law firm and life in-house\, and why there is no single “best” path. Some lawyers find deep fulfilment as partners and specialists; others are drawn to the breadth\, ambiguity\, and leadership demands of the corporate environment. \nWe will also explore the importance of networking and mentoring\, not as transactional exercises\, but as long-term practices of intellectual generosity\, relationship-building\, and professional community. \nThe session will consider what will distinguish a successful and meaningful career in today’s landscape\, blending both timeless wisdom and modern insights in a changing legal landscape. This is ultimately a lecture about agency — and how to shape a meaningful legal career in an era of disruption. \nSpeaker \nBjarne P. Tellmann is CEO of FjordStream Advisors GmbH and a Senior Visiting Fellow in Practice at the LSE Law School. He spent three decades in global legal leadership roles\, including as Founding General Counsel of Haleon plc\, a FTSE 20 company\, and Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel of Pearson plc\, a FTSE 100. He has also held senior leadership positions across Europe\, the United States\, Asia\, and the Middle East at Coca-Cola\, Aramco\, and Kimberly-Clark\, and began his career at Sullivan & Cromwell and White & Case. \nSession 1 – 3 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nBeing a General Counsel Today: Careers\, Technology\, and Change\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 2 – 10 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nFrom Law School to the C-Suite: What General Counsel and Legal Departments Actually Do in Today’s Companies\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 3 – 18 March | 6pm – 7.30pm (Drinks reception to follow after the event)\nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You.
