DESCRIPTION:As part of the 9I��������� Dispute Resolution Lecture Series 2015-20
 16\, the Private Justice & Rule of Law research group has the pleasure of 
 inviting you to a lecture by Ryan Reetz and Pedro Martinez-Fraga of Bryan 
 Cave\, Miami. Following on the success of their recent book launch\, they 
 will deliver a lecture entitled\, “Public Purpose in International Law: Re
 thinking Regulatory Sovereignty in the Global Era”.\n\nThis lecture explor
 es how the public purpose doctrine reconciles the often conflicting\, but 
 equally binding\, obligations that states have to engage in regulatory sov
 ereignty while honoring host-state obligations to protect foreign investme
 nt. The lecture examines the multiple permutations and iterations of the p
 ublic purpose doctrine and concludes that this principle needs to be recon
 ceptualized to meet the imperatives of economic globalization and of a new
  paradigm of sovereignty that is based on the interdependence\, and not in
 dependence\, of states. It contends that the historical expression of the 
 public purpose doctrine in customary and conventional international law is
  fraught with fundamental flaws that\, if not corrected\, will give rise t
 o disparities in the relationship between investors and states\, asymmetri
 es with respect to industrialized nations and developing states\, and\, ul
 timately\, process legitimacy concerns.\n\nA cocktail reception will follo
 w.\n\nThis lecture has been accredited for 1.5 hours of Continuing Legal E
 ducation.\n\nTo register\, kindly RSVP to kuzi.charamba [at] mail.mcgill.c
