International Law in Domestic Courts Workshop, May 23
March 20, 2025
As previously announced, the next International Law in Domestic Courts (ILDC) Workshop will be held at the George Washington University Law School on May 23. ILDC is an interest group of the American Society of International Law. Its purpose is to promote dialogue among scholars and lawyers who are interested in issues pertaining to the application of international law and foreign relations law in domestic courts, particularly U.S. courts.
We have selected eight papers (listed below) for discussion. The tentative agenda is available here. For those who have not attended previously, keep in mind that this is an academic workshop. Each of the papers will be no more than twelve pages in length, but all attendees are expected to have read all the papers before the workshop. Persons interested in attending may RSVP here.
