UiO The Faculty of Law PluriCourts - Centre for the Study of the Legitimate Roles of the Judiciary in the Global Order

Legal Reading Group

The legal reading group meets on a regular basis to discuss leading publications on international courts and tribunals. The aim is to develop our understanding of an article/book chapter and how it might be relevant for our own projects, through sharing insights on its substance, merits, and broader context. The reading group managed by PluriCourts, but open to everyone that is interested.
