  • Demystifying the characteristics and security of digital assets, cryptoassets and cryptocurrencies

    CBG 1.06 Centre Building, Houghton Street, LSE, United Kingdom
    Public Lectures 

    At this stage, a universally agreed taxonomy or classification of cryptoassets does not exist. A number of government bodies have adopted different approaches. The Law Commission has recently introduced crypto-tokens as a subset of digital assets in their consultation paper. As the UK hopes to become a global hub for cryptoasset technology and investment, regulatory initiatives need to catch up. Our panel of experts will discuss further issues and propose governance measures that could be implemented to better regulate this space.

  • Revolutionary International Law in Revolutionary Times

    The Box 5th Floor of Pethick Lawrence House
    Seminars 

    What constitutes a revolutionary tradition in international law? How might that, or those, traditions respond to these revolutionary times? In what respects are international law and especially familiar critical programmes in the field (NAIL, TWAIL, Marxist International law) “revolutionary”? What is, or might be, the organisational form of a revolutionary movement? Do revolutions have their own laws? Is one of the laws of revolution that they must be law-destroying?
