SUMMARY:Live Broadcast of the ICJ’s Advisory Proceedings on Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Come along to watch the live broadcast of the opening of the advisory proceedings of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on climate change\, focused on the arguments of Vanuatu and Melanesian Spearhead Group. \nThe advisory opinion given by the Court after its two-week hearing is expected to set the agenda for general international law on climate change and energy transition\, above and beyond the diplomatic agenda of the climate COPs. \nStudents with an interest in international law\, oral advocacy\, and/or environmental issues are particularly encouraged to drop in at any time. \nBy way of background\, on 29 March 2023\, the UN General Assembly (UNGA) adopted a resolution by consensus (A/RES/77/276)\, led by Vanuatu and over 100 co-sponsors on the original initiative of Pacific Island Students Fighting Climate Change. The UNGA thereby requested the ICJ to give an advisory opinion on the following questions: \n\nWhat are the obligations of States under international law to ensure the protection of the climate system and other parts of the environment from anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for States and for present and future generations?\nWhat are the legal consequences under these obligations for States where they\, by their acts and omissions\, have caused significant harm to the climate system and other parts of the environment\, with respect to:\n\n(a) States\, including small island developing States (SIDS)\, which\, due to their geographical circumstances and level of development\, are injured or specially affected by\, or are particularly vulnerable to\, the adverse effects of climate change? \n(b) Peoples and individuals of the present and future generations affected by the adverse effects of climate change?

SUMMARY:Nafay Choudhury: ‘Bazaar Governance: Legal Pluralism and Economic Order in an Afghan Marketplace’
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to present the first event in the new LSE Law and Anthropology Seminar Series\, supported jointly by the Law School and the Anthropology Department. \nOur inaugural speaker will be Dr. Nafay Choudhury\, Assistant Professor of Law at the LSE\, on the topic of ‘Bazaar Governance: Legal Pluralism and Economic Order in an Afghan Marketplace’. All interested LSE staff and students are very welcome to attend. Capacity is limited\, and the event operates on a first come basis. \nAlternatively\, to join hybrid please register here \nTopic: \nBased on 16 months of ethnographic fieldwork in Afghanistan\, this presentation explores the maintenance of order within Afghanistan’s central money exchanger bazaar\, Sarai Shahzada. The bazaar plays a central role in the running of the country’s entire economy despite operating with a high degree of autonomy from the state. The presentation explores the various governance practices within the bazaar\, which bring together overlapping and interpenetrating elements of state law\, non-state law and extra-legal arrangements based on based on trust. I employ the term entangled governance to capture the convergence of these different forms of ordering. Entangled governance turns attention to the hybrid assemblage of diverse logics and rationalities employed by individuals that contributes to the overall maintenance of order. It highlights the messy\, inconsistent and contingent nature of order within a social setting. Ethnographic insights help to provide a granular account of the “organized chaos” or “patterned contingency” that characterizes the continued success of the bazaar. \nSpeaker: \nDr. Nafay Choudhury joined the LSE in 2023 and is Assistant Professor of Law (Socio-Legal Studies). His work sits at the intersection of socio-legal studies\, legal pluralism\, economic development\, private law\, and the rule of law. He studies the fragmented and plural forms of order that exist within the state\, alongside the state\, and beyond the state. His current research looks at the role of market associations in providing normative order in fragile settings. His book manuscript (under contract with Cambridge University Press) examines non-state legal ordering through an ethnographic study of Afghanistan’s money exchangers. \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:LLM Case Study Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The LLM legal case study workshop\, facilitated by Kathryn Davis\, will give students an idea of what it is like in practice to respond to a legal case study presented to you in an interview or assessment centre environment\, with no prior opportunity for preparation. It is aimed at students preparing for assessment at a firm undertaking commercial work. \nThis interactive session will demonstrate how to balance attention to detail with the practicalities of giving legal advice in a commercial context – the elusive quality of “commercial awareness”. Come prepared for a fast-paced virtual interactive session that enables you to think on your feet and learn some techniques that you can deploy whatever the format you are ultimately presented with. \nLocation: CKK\, 1.09. \nDate: 4th December 2024 \nTime: 10:00am – 12:30pm \nBooking via CareerHub essential.

SUMMARY:FinTech and Digital Finance Masterclass – Session 5
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this course is designed for LLB & LLM students ONLY. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\n\n\n\nCertificates will be provided to participants who attend all five Sessions. \nIt is mandatory for all participants to present their valid LSE ID cards upon arrival at each masterclass. Failure to do so will regrettably result in denial of entry. \nThis certificate Master Class Series at LSE Law School is designed to provide students with a comprehensive introduction to regulatory issues arising in the sphere of ‘FinTech’ and ‘Digital Finance’. Both terms are used interchangeably and refer to technology-enabled financial services and products that are either novel\, or traditional and provided in structurally novel ways. FinTech and Digital Finance do not have an existence apart\, rather\, they are part of the continuously evolving financial market as it keeps developing. \nDiscussion on FinTech typically focusses on terms such as blockchain\, stablecoin\, CBDC\, robo-advice\, and mobile payment. However\, to really understand these developments and identify key structural trends they are best discussed by reference to a number of – wider – central themes\, notably regulatory arbitrage\, the increasing use of technology\, datafication\, and the convergence of financial services with other markets\, such as social media and e-commerce. \nOur Convene Master Class Series will break down these developments and set them into their regulatory and legal context. It cuts across matters addressed in the curriculum at LSE Law School\, such as financial regulation and financial law\, commercial and corporate law\, data regulation and competition law. \nThis course is open exclusively to LLM and LLB students at LSE Law School. It is designed to be co-curricular (i.e.\, not part of the LLM or LLB curricula) and complement other relevant courses. \nStudents will earn a certificate for attending all sessions\, the course will not count as credit\, to put towards any degree\, nor will it be examinable. \nSpeakers: Philipp Paech\, Elisabeth Noble \n\nThis event will be followed by a drinks reception to celebrate the completion of the masterclass.
