(De-/re-)constructions of International Law over Time and Space

20th Annual Conference of the European Society of International Law

Freie Universität Berlin
10 - 13 September 2025

Deadline for Proposals: 15 January 2025

For the last decade, international law has gone through a period of turbulence. In response, it is time to move beyond crisis narratives and adopt a forward-looking approach. For such an undertaking, the year 2025 offers an appropriate context. It will mark the 80th birthday of the United Nations, the institutional centre of the international legal order. At the same time, 2025 is just five years away from 2030 when the future direction of the current blueprint for global social order, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), will need to be decided.

Law and Diversity in European History -19th Annual Graduate Conference in European History (GRACEH)

Place: University of Vienna (Austria) / Zoom
Time: 7 - 9 April 2025

Deadline for Submission of Abstracts: 5 January 2025

GRACEH 2025 offers a platform to explore the complex interplay between legal systems and the diverse social fabric of Europe across different historical spaces and periods. Europe’s rich cultural, ethnic, and religious diversity has shaped numerous legal traditions, often oscillating between integration and exclusion. The conference seeks to examine the interaction between legal structures and social diversity as well as the role of law in promoting or suppressing diversity from a historical perspective. In this context, diversity can be understood as the variety of identities, social groups and cultural backgrounds. It includes among other aspects, differences in terms of encompassing gender, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, social class and Disabilities.

Jurist:in werden. Ausbildung, „Handwerkszeug“, Haltung (1869-2023)

25. Jahrestagung des Forums Justizgeschichte

Seit 2022 soll in Jurastudium und Referendariat die Vermittlung des Rechts „auch in Auseinandersetzung mit dem nationalsozialistischen Unrecht und dem Unrecht der SED-Diktatur“ erfolgen (§ 5a Abs. 2 Satz 3 Deutsches Richtergesetz [DRiG]).

Können so Jurist:innen gar, wie im Gesetzgebungsverfahren argumentiert wurde, „Mut, Gegenrede und Widerständigkeit“ erlernen, also eine couragierte demokratisch-rechtsstaatliche Haltung?

The Hungarian Optants Question in transnational perspectives. International organizations and legal dispute settlements of economic and minority problems in the interwar period

The end of WW I drastically changed the political map of Central and Eastern Europe and disrupted large imperial economic markets.

This conference focuses on the Hungarian Optants Question, using it however as a case study for the larger scope of exploring fields of a changing statehood in the interwar period.
