Rapid Response Seminar: Humanitarian Intervention, International Law and Syria

Normally, we post our conference announcements weekly, but we just got word of one tomorrow that’s worth flagging.  The British Institute of International and Comparative law (BIICL) will be holding a Rapid Response Seminar tomorrow, September 11, from 4-6 pm to discuss ‘Humanitarian Intervention, International Law and Syria’.  As the title suggests, the conversation will discuss whether humanitarian intervention falls within the corpus of international law and, if so, whether it can be applied to the current Syrian situation.  Robert McCorquodale (BIICL) will chair the panel, with scheduled speakers including Dapo Akande (Oxford), Sigrun Skogly (Lancaster), Guglielmo Verdirame (King’s College) and Marc Weller (Cambridge).  The seminar will take place in the Senate Room, Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU.   For more information see here.
