International Law Distinguished Visitor Lecture 2023-2024

Speaker: Lech Garlicki

Former Judge of the European Court of Human Rights and Visiting Professor of Law, Washington University in Saint Louis

Professor Garlicki’s talk will be entitled
 Courts and Abusive Constitutionalism. It will explore the targeting of courts as part of a phenomenon known as “abusive constitutionalism”: when a democratically-elected regime exploits a nation’s legal and constitutional framework to consolidate power and weaken checks and balances. Professor Garlicki will focus on recent examples involving regimes in Hungary and his native Poland, and will reflect on how these countries’ experiences can serve as a cautionary tale for the United States.

Professor Garlicki served as a judge on the European Court of Human Rights from 2002 to 2012, and prior to that as a judge on the Constitutional Court of Poland. Currently serving as a Visiting Professor of Law at Washington University in Saint Louis, he has also taught courses at Yale, New York University, the University of Chicago, the University of Toronto, the University of Paris I (Sorbonne), and the University of Hong Kong. We are delighted to announce that Professor Garlicki will be joining Lewis & Clark Law as an adjunct professor starting in Fall 2024, teaching Comparative Law.

To reserve a lunch from Dang’s Thai Kitchen for this event, please RSVP here by February 1st. Vegan and meat lunch options will be provided.

Dispute Settlement in Trade and Investment: Implications for the Environment with Distinguished Visitor, Professor Emeritus Donald M. McRae

Trade and investment disputes frequently concern environmental issues. Because both the WTO dispute settlement process and investment arbitration produce decisions that are binding, they can effectively make determinations about environmental issues. Drawing on my experience in both trade and investment disputes dealing with environmental issues, I will explore some of the advantages and disadvantages of the treatment of environmental issues in these dispute settlement processes. Also, the processes are under current criticism and questions arise whether reforms to them will have a positive or negative effect on the way environmental issues are dealt with.  Finally, on the basis of my own experience I will look at other types of dispute settlement mechanisms that also deal with environmental matters, specifically negotiation and conciliation.
