OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Customary international law is a crucial source of international law because once it is identified, it is binding on all States. But determining whether an applicable rule of customary international law exists is not always simple or straightforward.
Moderated by the School’s Professor of International Law Philippa Webb, Sir Michael Wood and Dr Sender, the authors of Identification of Customary International Law, will share guidance and insights on how to determine the existence and content of rules of customary international law.
They will reflect on the methodology and examine practical questions concerning the process and evidence involved. Professors Çalı and Akande will serve as discussants. There will be plenty of time for questions, including on the challenges of providing advice in a shifting legal landscape.
The book launch is followed by a drinks reception.
The event is jointly hosted by the Blavatnik School of Government, the Bonavero Institute and the Faculty of Law, University of Oxford.
