SUMMARY:LSE/ClientEarth Clinic Presentation: Who Pays for Climate Breakdown? Banks\, Financed Emissions\, and the Road to Climate Accountability
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nPlease note this event will now be taking place in Marshall 1.04\, please see venue details below. \nAs the world’s biggest banks continue to pour billions into fossil fuels—nearly US$8 trillion since the Paris Agreement—a pressing legal frontier is emerging: are financial institutions that make climate-destructive projects possible legally accountable for the harms they help cause? Join us for the launch of the LSE/ClientEarth Report that stems from the Sustainability Law & Policy Clinic project\, on which a team of twelve students from across five LSE departments have worked throughout this academic year. Working at the cutting edge of climate litigation and financial accountability\, the Clinic has undertaken an interdisciplinary investigation spanning two interrelated strands of research. First\, we examined how courts around the world have grappled with the thorny question of legal causation and scientific attribution in climate cases against major emitters—whether states or corporations—asking what legal tests\, attribution evidence\, and litigation strategies have proved most compelling. Second\, we turned the lens to banks and financial institutions\, mapping how litigants and civil society have sought to quantify ‘financed emissions’ and articulate the responsibility of banks for their unique role in enabling climate breakdown. Together\, these strands lay the legal groundwork for what may become a landmark methodological study. Taking a ‘Heede for banks’ approach\, modelled on the groundbreaking study that traced global emissions to a handful of carbon majors\, this work seeks to guide the development of a methodology for attributing a justifiable share of global emissions to the world’s most systemically important financial institutions. \nStudents will present their findings\, followed by a discussion with external experts on strategic litigation\, climate attribution science\, and sustainable finance\, offering a rare opportunity for open dialogue on one of the most consequential and innovative questions in climate governance today. Whether you are a legal scholar\, a climate advocate\, a finance professional\, or simply a concerned citizen\, we warmly invite you to attend\, listen\, challenge\, and contribute to this vital conversation. The event will close with a drinks reception\, offering further opportunity for conversation and exchange. \nStudent presenters: \n\nFarah Alaradi (BA in Law & Anthropology)\nSahra Paucar Bejarano (MSc Environmental Regulation)\nNehanshu Rao Chetty (MSc in Law and Finance)\nMary Cline (MSc in Human Rights and Politics)\nPablo Sebastián Díez Pinto (LLM)\nZacharia El Khamloussy (LLM)\nLeong Yue Andrew Ko (LLM)\nNoreen Nakirinya (LLM)\nGeorgia Skapoulli (LLM)\nTomas Vladyka (LLB)\nAn-Ya Yap (LLB)\n\nDiscussants \n\nRobert Clarke and Alex Bennett (Lawyers in ClientEarth’s Accountable Finance team and project partners)\nPablo Felmer Roa (Strategic Litigator and Campaigner\, Member of the Board of Directors at Reclaim Finance)\nLéa Miomandre (Finance Analyst at Reclaim Finance)\nJasper Blom (Lead Researcher in the climate case against ING and Senior Policy Officer focusing on financial sector regulation at Milieudefensie)\nMaria Carvalho (Head of Climate Economics and Data at NatWest Group)\nTom Alcoran (Senior Analyst at InfluenceMap)\nJoana Setzer (Associate Professor at GRI & Co-lead of GSoS Theme 3)\n\nChair: Marie Petersmann (Assistant Professor at LSE Law School & Director of the SLPC) \nThe LSE Supervision Team of the LSE will also be present and includes: \n\nNoah Walker-Crawford (Research Fellow at GRI and Strand A Supervisor);\nJoy Reyes (Policy Officer at GRI and Strand A Supervisor);\nNicholas Petkov (Research Assistant at GRI and Strand A Supervisor);\nEoin Jackson (PhD Researcher at LSE Law School and Strand A Supervisor);\nAgnieszka Smoleńska (Senior Policy Fellow at CETEx and Strand B Supervisor);\nTiffanie Chan (Policy Analyst at GRI/CETEx and Strand B Supervisor).\n\nThis event is kindly supported by the LSE Global School of Sustainability (GSoS). \nThis event will be followed by a drinks reception. \nPlease note\, that although this event is ticketed\, seating will operate on a first-come\, first-serve basis.

SUMMARY:Anti-colonial Resistance\, Academic Freedom\, and Political Dissent in Cameroon
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place in person\, with an option to attend remotely. If you would like to join remotely\, please register using the hyperlink below. \nAttend via Zoom: Register Here  \nIn this discussion\, Barrister Caroline Mbinkar examines the “Nera 10” case as a window into the criminalization of political dissent and the shrinking space for academic and civic freedoms amid the Anglophone conflict in Cameroon. In 2018\, ten professionals\, including academics\, associated with the Anglophone struggle were arrested in Nigeria and deported to Cameroon. Despite being civilians\, they were tried before a military tribunal and sentenced to life imprisonment on charges of terrorism and secession. The story of the Nera 10 is part of a longer struggle in which minority Anglophone peoples have sought equality and freedom in Cameroon. Longstanding grievances about political exclusion\, linguistic domination\, and the erosion of legal and other public institutions\, led lawyers and teachers to protest in 2016\, which sparked an ongoing civil conflict – one of the most overlooked in the world. In this context\, the prosecution of the Nera 10 illustrates a broader shift toward the securitization of political grievances and the repression of intellectuals\, professionals\, and civic actors whose work and words challenge the prevailing order. At stake is not only the fate of ten individuals\, but the meaning of justice itself. In this discussion. Barrister Mbinkar explores the freedom dreams that continue to drive the Anglophone struggle and broader aspirations for peace and self-determination in Cameroon and beyond. \nSpeaker: Barrister Caroline Mbinkar is a distinguished lawyer from Cameroon and a Visiting Senior Fellow in Practice at LSE. She co-founded a pro bono law chambers\, ALL for Cameroon\, which provides free legal assistance for those unable to otherwise afford it. Prior to being sworn into the Bar\, Caroline was a committed human rights defender in Cameroon. In 2017\, when violent conflict broke out in the anglophone regions of Cameroon\, Caroline co-established the Cameroon Conflict Research Group at the University of Oxford.  \nChair: Dr Roxana Willis  \nThis event will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:Arbitration and Peace
DESCRIPTION:In the grand tradition of philosophers of the project of perpetual peace\, Immanuel Kant once famously proposed that the spirit of commerce (“Verkehr”) provided the essential ingredient.  Building on Kant’s insight\, this talk proposes that this ‘spirit of commerce’ depends upon trust in a robust system of dispute resolution that provides credible infrastructure for resolving disputes when commercial relations go awry.  Absent that system\, the incentives for commerce will not materialize\, or “wronged” parties will appeal for domestic political intervention to vindicate their interests.  International arbitration\, one of the most profound successes of international law in the twentieth century\, provides that essential infrastructure.  The paper traces the history of the perpetual peace project\, explains how international arbitration advances that goal and proposes how scholars and practitioners of international arbitration can contribute to that project in the twenty-first century. \nSpeaker: Professor Peter Bo Rutledge \nTalmadge Chair of Law\, School of Law\, University of Georgia. Professor Rutledge is the Talmadge Chair of Law. From 2015 through 2024\, he served as dean of the University of Georgia School of Law. He is the author of the book Arbitration and the Constitution and co-author with Gary Born of the book International Civil Litigation in United States Courts. His works have been published by the Yale University Press\, the Oxford University Press and the Cambridge University Press\, and his articles have appeared in a diverse array of journals such as The University of Chicago Law Review\, the Vanderbilt Law Review and the Journal of International Arbitration. He also regularly advises parties on matters of international dispute resolution (litigation and arbitration). \nChair: Professor David Kershaw \nThis seminar is open to the public and will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nThis event will be followed by a drinks reception.

SUMMARY:The Wonders of Originalism\, or It’s Amazing How Often Smart People Latch onto Dumb Ideas - Larry Kramer
DESCRIPTION:The US Constitution is the oldest and most intensely litigated modern constitution in the world\, and it has also spawned a most remarkable array of theories on how the Constitution should be interpreted. In this lecture\, LSE President Larry Kramer reflects on the issue of constitutional interpretation by focusing on one distinctive theory\, that of originalism. Originalism is a style of interpretation that claims that the Constitution has an original meaning which is gleaned from historical analysis and which trumps all other arguments for deciding what a constitutional provision means. Arguing that originalism is an incoherent theory\, Kramer explains how and why originalism has become an influential theory only since the 1950s. And in presenting that case\, he offers more general insights into the character of constitutions. \nSpeaker: Professor Larry Kramer\, President and Vice Chancellor \nCommentator: Justice Goodwin Liu\, California Supreme Court \nChair: Andrew Murray\, Dean LSE Law School \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis. This event is not open to the public.

SUMMARY:Regulatory Interoperability for AI: where is Alcibiades’ dog tail?
DESCRIPTION:When Alcibiades cut off his dog’s tail\, he knew what he was doing. Athens would gossip about the cruelty and ignore the war. Politics\, he understood\, is often about distraction. Artificial intelligence regulation may have acquired its own dog tail. \nThe AI-regulation debate is too often consumed by grand gestures: calls for global AI treaties and declarations; sweeping principles and landmark conferences; and ever longer lists of values\, codes of practice and “global firsts”. Meanwhile\, AI systems move across borders with ease\, while regulation (and risk-based analyses) do not. Models are trained in one jurisdiction\, deployed in another\, and governed—fragmentedly—by many (or none). Specific-purpose systems sometimes face jurisdictional barriers and some others do not\, without any kind of structural logic. Courts\, regulators\, standards bodies and procurement rules all seem to tug at some uses. No one is in charge. Everyone claims concern. \nInto this disorder steps “regulatory interoperability”. The words reassure. The concept suggests harmony without sacrifice. But too often it functions like Alcibiades’ dog: something eye‑catching that diverts attention from harder questions. What\, precisely\, must interoperate? Laws? Institutions? Evidence? Decisions? Or merely aspirations? \nTechnical interoperability we are familiar with. Regulatory interoperability we are not. It is not harmonisation in disguise\, nor deregulation by another name. It may be a strategy for a world that will not agree on first bests\, but we are not sure how that looks. It requires design\, not slogans. Translation\, not consensus. Without that work\, policymakers will keep debating the tail—while the dog runs without direction. \nIn this seminar José-Miguel Bello y Villarino will share his observations about this process and where it seems to be heading. He will present how he sees regulatory interoperability to be distinct or similar to other related concepts and where it is another byword for misdirection or\, even worse\, hiding attemps to reinvent the wheel. He will engage with (and criticise) previous work\, to dispiritedly offer limited (if any) solutions. He will discuss how the term has been used in policy documents\, just to illustrate its operational limitations. And yet\, he hopes something insightful would come out of this research agenda and seminar. \nBio: José‑Miguel Bello y Villarino is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Sydney Law School and an Australian Research Council Early Career Industry Fellow (2025–27)\, affiliated with the ARC Automated Decision-Making and Society Centre of Excellence and the University of Sydney Centre for AI\, Trust and Governance. He is Director of Research Engagement at the Sydney Law School\, where he co‑teaches advanced Law and Technology\, together with an interdisciplinary course at the Faculty of Engineering. He is a member of Spain’s Diplomatic Corps (on leave)\, with prior experience at the European Union (Commission and Council). His ARC fellowship\, in partnership with the NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption\, develops governance frameworks for using AI and automation to combat systemic corruption in the public sector. He has held visiting appointments at the EUI School of Transnational Governance and Harvard Law School and is a graduate from Santiago de Compostela (Political Sciences and Law)\, College of Europe (Law)\, NYU School of Law\, the Spanish Diplomatic School and the University of Sydney. \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:Socio-Legal Hub Open Lecture: Why I Changed My Mind (POSTPONED)
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately\, this event has been postponed and will be rescheduled at a later date. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. \nLaw Events \nThe academy ideally seeks to sustain an intellectual space for debate\, discussion\, and critique\, where individuals are encouraged to continually question and refine their worldviews. At the same time\, academics are expected to rigorously defend their scholarly positions\, which can sometimes make it difficult to change one’s views\, as doing so may be perceived as a sign of intellectual weakness. In this panel\, three scholars at the LSE will reflect on their academic trajectories and share personal experiences of how socio-legal research led them to rethink or revise their views on a particular issue. \nSpeakers: Professor Susanne Baer is Centennial Professor at LSE Law School\, Professor of Public Law and Gender Studies at Humboldt University Berlin. \nProfessor Emily Jackson is Professor of Law at the LSE. \nProfessor Nicola Lacey is School Professor of Law\, Gender and Social Policy at the LSE. \nChair: Dr Nafay Choudhury (LSE)

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.

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:Book Launch: Giulia Claudia Leonelli\, Environmental Leverage in Times of Climate Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the book launch of Environmental Leverage in Times of Climate Crisis\, published in February 2026\, and for an engaging conversation across the fields of environmental law\, economics and policy. The last years have witnessed the rise of a new generation of trade-related measures\, designed to leverage ‘lower-environmental-ambition’ countries and market actors involved in global value chains. Trade-related environmental leverage can help to remedy the failures of environmental multilateralism\, reshape the trade agenda to cater to the demands of our time\, and entrench more sustainable production and consumption patterns.  Nonetheless\, ‘leveraging’ developed countries must duly address allegations of green protectionism\, green discrimination\, and eco-imperialism. As the trade law regime and the climate change mitigation agenda come under fire on the other side of the Atlantic\, new challenges also lie ahead. The net-zero pendulum has swung\, but it will swing again. Join our Speakers and Chair to discuss the world’s long journey towards climate change resilient and prosperous futures\, and the many obstacles on the path. \nSpeakers: \n\nGiulia Claudia Leonelli (Assistant Professor of Law\, LSE Law School)\nEmily Lydgate (Professor of Environmental Law\, University of Sussex; Co-Director\, UK Trade Policy Observatory)\nAndrew Lang (Professor of Law and Chair in International Law and Governance\, University of Edinburgh)\n\nChair:  \n\nEric Neumayer (LSE Deputy President and Vice Chancellor; Professor\, Department of Geography and Environment)\n\nA drinks reception will be held after the event \nThis event operates on a first-come\, first-served basis

SUMMARY:Enemization and Solidarity in Times of War: The Case of the Palestinian Citizens of Israel
DESCRIPTION:Dr Totry-Jubran will present her article exploring how constitutional guarantees of freedom of expression are reshaped under conditions of emergency\, focusing on the treatment of Palestinian citizens of Israel after October 7\, 2023. \nThe article argues that in deeply divided societies\, solidarity operates as a constitutional boundary-making device: state calls for national unity are legally enforced through practices that construct an internal enemy and narrow the scope of protected speech. Drawing on constitutional theory\, emergency governance\, and security-oriented criminal law\, the article shows how expressions of grief\, humanitarian concern\, or solidarity with civilians in Gaza were reclassified as incitement or identification with terrorism. Through analysis of emergency directives\, protest restrictions\, and enforcement patterns\, it demonstrates how constitutional rights were selectively suspended in practice\, producing an ethnonationally stratified regime of free speech. The Israeli case reveals how constitutional law\, under crisis conditions\, becomes a tool for redefining political belonging and the limits of democratic citizenship. \nSpeaker: Dr Manal Totry-Jubran \nDr Manal Totry- Jubran is an associate professor at the Law faculty\, Bar Ilan University. She is currently a visiting professor at the Global Centre of Democratic Constitutionalism at UCL\, Law School. In 2024 and 2025 she was a visiting professor at the Luiss Law School\, Rome. In 2023 and 2025 she was a visiting professor at the Bicocca Law School\, Milano. She was a Post Doctorial Fellow at the Faculty of Law\, the Hebrew University. She received her LL.M. (Magna cum Laude) and Ph.D. from the Faculty of Law\, University of Tel- Aviv. She was awarded the “Cegla Prize” for Exceptional Legal Articles in Hebrew; the “Gorni Prize”\, by the Israeli Association of Public Law young researchers for Excellent young researcher in public Law. She was selected by “Calcalist” newspaper and “Bank Hapoalim” as one of ten Young Promising Arab leaders in the Arab Society; she was awarded the Ma’of scholarship for outstanding Arab students\, The Council for Higher Education in Israel. \nChair: Dr Neli Frost (commentator: Prof Tarun Khaitan) \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:Corporate Value and the Role of Shareholders
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nValues have always been a part of corporate operations\, but they are particularly salient today. Corporate values now weigh heavily in consumer\, employee\, and shareholder choices\, so much so that misaligned values can make or break companies. Some argue that managers should select values that align with those of their stakeholders. Others argue that corporate values should match shareholder preferences. Still others claim that economic value\, without regard to values\, should be the sole focus of managerial efforts. The debate over values is not only important for the theory and practice of corporate governance\, but also carries significant policy implications\, as Congress and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are poised to deconstruct the shareholder proposal mechanism—a key source of corporate values formation—based on a limited appreciation of the role of values in corporate operations. \nIn this Article\, we set out to align those who highlight the importance of values with those who maintain that a corporation’s proper role is to focus on value. We argue that managers should select the corporate values that maximize long-term economic value. To do so\, however\, managers need to understand the economic significance of corporate values. Understanding the values of corporate stakeholders is a key input in that assessment. It is relatively easy for most stakeholders—consumers\, employees and even the government—to communicate their values to corporations. Consumers\, for instance\, do so through their purchasing decisions and\, in more extreme cases\, boycotts. Employees choose jobs based on values and communicate their preferences to management through internal channels. Shareholders\, however\, lack ready ways to communicate their values\, disadvantaging them relative to other stakeholders\, and leaving managers with an information gap that can lead to costly mistakes.  \nShareholders are uniquely impeded from communicating their values by what we term “shareholder-side impediments” and “corporate-side impediments.” The former stem primarily from the institutionalization of equity markets. The widespread intermediation of investing interferes with the ability of shareholders to select companies based on values and to communicate their values to management. The latter stem from the structure of corporate law\, which largely sidelines shareholders.  \nWe leverage the foregoing analysis to advocate against two potentially transformative trends in shareholder democracy—the pressure on the shareholder proposal rule and the adoption of voting choice programs. First\, the power of public company shareholders to introduce shareholder proposals\, many of which deal with values-related issues\, has inspired a powerful backlash. Congress is considering repeal of the shareholder proposal rule\, and the Chairman of the SEC has expressed frustrated with environmental\, social and governance (ESG)-related proposals and backed a controversial proposition that precatory proposals are illegal under state law. Our analysis shows that repealing the shareholder proposal rule or banning values-based proposals would be a mistake in that precatory proposals provide a focused and transparent mechanism for management to learn about what their shareholders value (and what they consider unimportant) without interfering with board discretion. Instead of a ban\, we recommend tailored modifications to the rule to address the concerns about misuse that have given rise to its condemnation.  \nSecond\, in response to political pressure and criticisms of their stewardship activities\, the Big Three mutual funds (Vanguard\, BlackRock\, and State Street) have implemented voting choice programs\, whereby they delegate voting decisions for their portfolio companies to their mutual fund customers by allowing them to select from a curated menu of voting policies. We argue that this approach is flawed. Rather\, financial intermediaries should retain their voting power but inform their voting decisions by actively soliciting input from their customers about their values and views. Intermediary stewardship is a more effective way to convey shareholder values to management as long as it is informed by the views of funds’ economic owners. \n\nJill Fisch is the Saul A. Fox Distinguished Professor of Business Law. Professor Fisch is an internationally known scholar whose work focuses on the intersection of business and law\, including the role of regulation and litigation in addressing limitations in the disciplinary power of the capital markets. \nCommentator: David Kershaw \nThis event operates on a first-come\, first-served basis. Please note that a ticket does not guarantee entry\, so we recommend arriving early to secure your seat.

SUMMARY:Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism – book talk by Thea Riofrancos\, followed by a discussion by Christine Schwöbel-Patel
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \n\nWill green capitalism save us from the climate crisis? ‘Clean’ technologies and renewable energy are certainly growing sites of capitalist investment\, with government policies playing a key role in making these sectors profitable. But the supply chains that produce the technologies pose vexing dilemmas for the energy transition. These dilemmas are most dramatic at the extractive frontiers of green capitalism: where the natural resources needed to manufacture electric vehicles and build windmills are extracted. In this talk\, we will unpack these challenges through the lens of lithium\, a so-called ‘critical mineral’ essential for its role in decarbonising one of the most polluting sectors: transportation. With forecasters predicting an enormous surge in lithium demand\, exceeding existing supplies\, Global North governments and downstream firms scramble to ‘secure’ lithium\, resulting in a new state-corporate alliance and the return of vertical integration. Meanwhile\, Global South governments are attempting to leverage critical mineral deposits into sustainable and sovereign economic development. And\, across the world\, environmental and Indigenous movements contest the rapid expansion of extraction\, defending ecosystems\, livelihoods\, and waterways already under pressure from global warming from a new boom in mining. It is in the play of these forces\, unfolding amidst geopolitical rivalry and economic turbulence\, that the energy transition will be forged. To conclude\, we will explore the possibility of a less mining-intensive pathway to zero carbon transportation.\n \nThe Speakers:\n\nThea Riofrancos is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Providence College\, a Strategic Co-Director of the Climate and Community Institute\, and a fellow at the Transnational Institute. Her research focuses on resource extraction\, renewable energy\, climate change\, the global lithium sector\, green technologies\, social movements\, and the Latin American left. She is the author of Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism (W.W. Norton\, 2025) and Resource Radicals: From Petro-Nationalism to Post-Extractivism in Ecuador (Duke University Press\, 2020)\, and the coauthor of A Planet to Win: Why We Need a Green New Deal (Verso Books\, 2019). Her publications have appeared in scholarly journals such as Global Environmental Politics\, World Politics\, and Perspectives on Politics\, as well as in media outlets including The New York Times\, Financial Times\, Foreign Policy\, n+1\, Dissent\, and more. \n\nChristine Schwöbel-Patel is Professor at Warwick Law School and Co-Director of its Centre for Critical Legal Studies. She is the author of\, among others\, Marketing Global Justice (Cambridge University Press\, 2021) and co-editor of Aesthetics and Counter-Aesthetics of International Justice (Counterpress\, 2023). Her forthcoming book Green Frontiers: The Laws of Extraction in the Green Transition is under contract with Verso. \nChair: Marie Petersmann (Assistant Professor of Law\, LSE Law School & GSoS). \n\n\nThis event is jointly organised by the LSE Law School and the LSE Global School of Sustainability (GSoS).\n\nA drinks reception will follow the event. The author will sign books for those interested in purchasing a copy\, which will be available at the event. \nPlease note\, although this event is ticketed\, seats will operate on a first-come\, first-serve basis.

SUMMARY:AI Masterclass: Law students\, Lawyers\, Judges in the machine age
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nWe’re delighted to welcome Sir Geoffrey Vos\, Master of the Rolls\, to speak about how artificial intelligence is changing the legal profession\, and what that means for all of us. \nSir Geoffrey has been at the forefront of modernising the courts and thinking seriously about technology’s role in justice. He’ll talk about the practical realities: what’s actually happening with AI in legal practice\, how judges are approaching these tools\, and what law students and lawyers need to be thinking about as they build their careers. \nThese aren’t abstract questions: AI is being used for legal research\, document review\, and increasingly sophisticated analysis. Courts are grappling with how to integrate technology while preserving the fundamentals of fair trials and human judgment. If you’re training to be a lawyer\, you need to understand this landscape\, and no one knows more about how the legal system in England & Wales is rising to this challenge than Sir Geoffrey Vos. \nThis is a rare chance to hear from someone who’s both shaping policy at the highest level and thinking carefully about what these changes mean for the profession. \nRegister now to reserve your place. \nThis series of seminars and panel discussions invites students and faculty to explore how the AI-driven transformation of legal services will affect how lawyers work\, which skills they need\, and what the workplace of the future might look like. \nSpeaker: Sir Geoffrey Vos\, Master of the Rolls and Head of Civil Justice \nThis series is arranged by Professor Andrew Murray\, Dr Neli Frost and Visiting Professor Bruce Braude. \nThis event operates on a first-come\, first-served basis. A ticket does not guarantee entry\, so please arrive early to secure your place. \n*Note for LSE Law Students who are participating in the masterclass series. This event will count towards your attendance in the AI Masterclass series.

SUMMARY:PIL Hub: ‘The Folk Concept of International Law'
DESCRIPTION:The PIL hub lunch-time seminar series aims to provide an opportunity to discuss and debate leading research on contemporary\, theoretical and historical issues of international law. \nOn 12th March 2026\, Dr Daniel Peat will present a talk titled ‘The Folk Concept of International Law’.  This session will take place in Moot Court Room\, please see venue information below. \nRecent work on experimental jurisprudence has explored whether the general public conceive law to be inherently linked to morality. In our study\, we build on this work to develop the ‘folk concept’ of international law. We report the results of an experimental survey carried out on 6\,000 respondents across six countries – Argentina\, China\, India\, the Netherlands\, South Africa\, and the United States. The goal of the study is not to survey what people think about  international law\, but rather to better understand what they think international law actually is. \nThis event is open to all and will be on a first-come-first-serve basis. \nLSE holds a wide range of events\, covering many of the most controversial issues of the day\, and speakers at our events may express views that cause offence. The views expressed by speakers at LSE events do not reflect the position or views of The London School of Economics and Political Science.

SUMMARY:Substantive principles of public law: what happened after 1987?
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nIn Public Law in 1987 a seminal article was published by Anthony Lester and Jeffrey Jowell on ‘Beyond Wednesbury: Substantive principles of administrative law’.  The traditional view of public law is that it is concerned with procedure\, not substance: how a decision is made rather than the substantive outcome.  That seminal article questioned that view.  This lecture will consider what has happened since 1987\, in particular looking at the principles which have developed about legitimate expectations\, protection of human rights\, equality and conformity with policies.  It will also consider the evolution of “rationality” as a ground of judicial review\, with increasing emphasis being placed on the principles of proportionality and reasonableness. \nSpeaker: Lord Justice Rabinder Singh \nChair: Professor Jo Murkens \nPlease note\, although this event is ticketed\, seating will operate on a first-come\, first-serve basis. \nA drinks reception will follow this event.

SUMMARY:General Counsel Masterclass | Session 2
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 2 \nFrom Law School to the C-Suite: What General Counsel and Legal Departments Actually Do in Today’s Companies \nWhat does a General Counsel actually do? What is it like to be a lawyer in an in-house legal department? \nIn this second session\, we move from the macro forces shaping the profession to the lived reality of in-house legal practice. We will address the questions many students have about in-house practice but rarely get answered. \nWhere does Legal sit inside a company? How is a department structured? How are resources allocated across crises\, contracts\, compliance\, strategy\, investigations\, and board-level issues? What does it really take to run a legal function that is expected to move fast\, stay credible\, and protect the enterprise\, often with limited resources and constant competing demands? \nWe will look at the General Counsel’s stakeholder universe. Few roles in a corporation are as interconnected. The GC must operate simultaneously with the CEO and Board\, finance and tax\, HR\, technology and cybersecurity\, marketing\, operations\, regulators\, and external counsel\, each with different incentives\, pressures\, and risk tolerances. \nWe will explore how Legal has shifted from being seen as the “department of no” to becoming\, increasingly\, the “department of how”: enabling growth\, navigating grey areas\, and helping organisations move forward responsibly in complex environments. \nAnother focus will be the evolving skillset that the modern lawyer needs. Legal expertise remains essential\, but it is no longer sufficient. Success belongs to professionals who can combine doctrinal strength with: \n\nStrategic judgment\nCommunication across legal and business worlds\nEmotional and cultural intelligence\nComfort with ambiguity and grey zones\nFluency in technology\, data\, and AI\nLeadership\, teamwork\, and organisational awareness\n\nThis lecture also examines the internal leadership dimension: motivating teams of lawyers\, balancing specialists and generalists\, managing legal as a business\, and building an operating model that can thrive in an AI-enabled corporate world. \nIf Lecture 1 was about the horizon\, Lecture 2 is about what it feels like to be steering the ship. \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 \nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You.
