CALL FOR PAPERS JURIS DIVERSITAS 6 th GENERAL CONFERENCE 15- 17 April 2019 Potchefstroom, South Africa Faculty of Law In partnership with Faculty of Law, North-West University, Potchefstroom, South Africa http://jurisdiversitas.blogspot.com/ and https://www.facebook.com/JurisDiversitas/ Law, Roots & Space The Theme: A couple of lawyers’ old friends: ‘Sources’ and ‘Jurisdictions’. In their parlance, these notions are often associated to modern, ‘positive’ law. The idea of ‘legal formants’ has been introduced to complete the picture, flexibilising it, making it more accurate, nuanced, realistic; an idea associated to comparative, socio-legal, anthropologic studies. With ‘Roots’ and ‘space’ geographers, historians, political scientists get involved. These are certainly less frequent notions in legal circles: we may still wish to make friends with them, to enrich our perception of legal phenomena. ‘ Roots ’ is often associated to history of law and related discourses – if legal form...

The Juris Diversitas Conference is Moved to April 2019

Image
Though the Call for Papers for the Juris Diversitas 2018 Conference on Law, Roots and Space yields promising submissions, prospective participants regret that they face a dilemma, due to a number of worldwide comparative law events organized on several continents in a very active 2018 conference season. Limited resources force many of our members to choose participating in the World Congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law (July 22-28, Fukuoka, Japan), in Juris Diversitas (June 25-27, Potchefstroom, South Africa), or in the World Congress of the International Association of Constitutional Law (June 18-22, Seoul, Korea). The Executive Committee of Juris Diversitas therefore resolved to postpone the 2018 Conference, moving it to April 15-17, 2019, in Potchefstroom, South Africa. Existing submissions will be reviewed, there shall be an extended call for papers, and participants will be invited, though not compelled, to communicate papers ahead of time, which may allow for...

STILL TIME TO SUBMIT!  Juris Diversitas will accept submissions until the end of March. Contact Prof. Olivier Moréteau at moreteau@lsu.edu with any question.   JURIS DIVERSITAS 5 th  ANNUAL CONFERENCE July 10-12, 2017 Lyon, France In partnership with EM Lyon & Université Jean Moulin Law & Food La cuisine juridique The Theme: For its 5 th  Annual Conference, Juris Diversitas revisits its culinary origins, expressed in the logo. The links between law and food are as old as the concept of law. Babylon, Egypt, Greece, and Rome cared about access to water resources and food, whether it came to trade or protection. Since times immemorial, Bhutan makes sure every citizen has access to a minimal acreage of land to secure food for the family. Whilst religions multiplied food prohibitions and prescriptions, customs redistributed land, shared its occupancy in creative ways, or favored communal property so that everyone had access to food. Laws have multiplied to facili...
