Join hundreds of members of the international legal
community at the annual
International Law Weekend
conference, October 20-22 in New York City.
The theme of
ILW 2011 is "International Law and National Politics." More
than
30 expert panels will examine how—and to what
extent—international standards
influence the application
and interpretation of national law, touching upon
such
diverse areas as human rights and humanitarian intervention,
national security, immigration, trade, labor, and the
environment.
ILW begins Thursday evening, October 20, with a
distinguished opening
panel at the House of the
Association of the Bar of the City of New York,
42 W. 44th
Street. A reception, open to all conference attendees, will
follow.
The conference continues Friday, October 21 and Saturday,
October 22
at Fordham Law School, 140 West 62nd
Street.
Friday's activities feature a keynote address by
distinguished guest speaker
Harold Koh, Legal Adviser to
the United States Department of State,
and an evening
reception hosted by the Permanent Mission of
Switzerland
to the United Nations.
Attendance at ILW is free for members of ABILA, ILSA,
ABCNY, and
other co-sponsoring organizations, as well

and Permanent Missions to
the United Nations, and students.
