King Hall, Room 1001 and via Livestream

REGISTER HERE for In-Person

Professor Katrin Kuhlmann from Georgetown University Law Center will present her forthcoming paper on “Micro International Law”, which proposes a new way of studying and applying international law to reflect smaller-scale lessons and legal innovations at the local, national, and regional levels that reflect the interests of a more diverse range of beneficiaries of international law, including individuals and developing economies.  Prof. Kuhlmann will present the importance of a “micro” approach at this critical turning point in international law and discuss how this interdisciplinary work would better align international law with other disciplines, including economics and international relations.  She will illustrate how the model can be applied through empirical study and policy interventions using a case study on food security and agricultural regulation in Tanzania and East Africa.
