Our lives are shaped by coercive structures determined to extract as much as possible from people and the planet. Growing precarity, combined with increased surveillance, social isolation and atomization, are generating a widespread sensation of avoidance of work of all kinds--not just wage work, but also housework, care work, organizing work, creative work. Avoidance is a meaningful, appropriate response to coercive extraction. But what happens when it shows up in all the other places where we do activities to reproduce our lives, care for each other, and fight back against the people and institutions who are bent on ecocide? In this talk, Dean Spade look at the question of work, examining how the relationships set up in wage work impact our experiences of care and resistance work, and what this means in a time when we need to take bold, courageous action together so badly.

While research focuses on combatant exposures, civilians face chronic contamination from heavy metals, chemical residues, unexploded ordnance, and asbestos, often exacerbated by disrupted infrastructure and psychological trauma. Framed through the exposome, this lecture highlights the need for greater research and policy focus on these long-term, low-level exposures and their impact on civilian health, advocating for remediation, care, and environmental justice.

The seminar aims at offering an innovative understanding of direct effect in EU law from historical, theoretical, doctrinal, and practical perspectives. It will attempt to revisit the past, present, and future of this revolutionary and transformative principle. The idea underpinning the seminar builds upon the OUP book (EU Law Library Series, 2025) authored by Professor Gallo, whereby it is asserted that the evolution of direct effect, as both a legal and political construct, has not been properly articulated by the CJEU and that, for this reason, direct effect lacks nowadays a clear legal framing as to its core components and consequences. Gallo seeks thus to reconstruct direct effect beyond the Van Gend & Loos doctrine and will ultimately submit possible solutions for its appropriate comprehension and enforcement.

The seminar, which builds upon Prof. Gallo’s book on Direct Effect in EU Law (EU Law Library Series, OUP, 2025), will offer a fresh understanding of direct effect in EU law. It will explain that such chameleon-like doctrine has evolved into a broader legal category than it was at the outset of the European legal integration process and that such transformation has not been correctly articulated by the CJEU due to an unpredictable and at times inconsistent case law.

To confront the challenges and threats unleashed by the likes of Putin and Trump, Europe should reconcile the demands for a more Geopolitical Union with its commitment to a Constitutional Union based on shared fundamental values. That means reimagining and revisiting certain existing assumptions and practices, including about what it means to be a Member State of the European Union. In this lecture, we will explore how far EU law could help in reshaping some of the expectations surrounding participation as a Member State, so as to discourage damaging unilateral behaviours and promote more collaborative conduct, but without disturbing the underlying constitutional balance premised upon state sovereignty.

Why has automation anxiety – the fear that new technologies cause mass unemployment – proven wrong over the centuries? This lecture explores how technology affects the labour market. While new technologies can substitute for workers, reducing demand for their efforts at certain activities, they can also complement them, increasing demand for them to do activities that haven’t been automated. Historically, people have focused on the former, harmful force and underestimated – or ignored – the latter helpful force. Today, headlines all too often make the same mistake.

As a system of Public International Law (PIL), International Refugee Law (IRL) diverges from those that evolved concurrently in certain distinct ways. Though internationally recognised, with a widely ratified Convention, and with complementary regional instruments and municipal legal regimes that require adherence to its fundamental tenets, the absence of clear instances of the attribution of international State responsibility is conspicuous, and merits a thorough inquiry. ‘State Responsibility and International Refugee Law: History, Theory, and Application’ provides an authoritative response to that inquiry. This first monograph by Dr. Sophie Capicchiano Young (Maria Sk?odowska-Curie scholar, University of Galway) provides a rigorous account of the history, theory, and application of State responsibility in IRL through an in-depth analysis of the evolving relationship between IRL and general PIL, spanning two centuries, five continents, and drawing on a vast wealth of sources. This event will feature an in-depth conversation between Dr. Capicchiano Young and Professor Reuven (Ruvi) Ziegler (University of Reading), followed by an audience Q&A

In 2025, the World Trade Organization (WTO) marks its 30th anniversary – a significant milestone that calls for deeper reflection and discourse on its impact on the harmonisation of trade rules and overall global trade dynamics. The WTO was established to regulate international trade and played a crucial role in promoting free trade, resolving disputes, and fostering economic collaboration among its member states. However, in recent years, multiple challenges have presented themselves, leading to a call for reform. This symposium seeks to reflect on the successes and challenges faced by the WTO over the last 30 years and discuss potential solutions moving forward, particularly in the area of emerging technologies, digital trade and geopolitical shifts.

By and large, EU competition law coexists peacefully with other regulatory norms. The existence of regulation does not oust the application of competition law, and compliance with one regime does not certify compliance with the other. In Meta Platforms, however, the Grand Chamber of the Court of Justice held that regulatory compliance (or non-compliance) may nonetheless provide a ‘vital clue’ as to whether behaviour is compatible with competition law in certain circumstances. This lecture will explore the implications of the Meta Platforms judgment and seek to explain and justify—if not necessarily defend—its approach.

Furthermore, he looks at online conspiracy theories, and poor Covid-19 clinical practice, and outlines resources such as the Welsh TalkCPR videos, that can help improve communication in an area rife with misconceptions and misunderstanding.

This lecture responds to a longstanding challenge posed by the communitarian theory of insolvency: to interrogate the normative foundations of insolvency law and its dominant theories, and to elucidate more fully the values and assumptions that underpin the field. Gross, the leading communitarian theorist, contended that both the creditors’ bargain theory (CBT) and values-based approaches failed to articulate the philosophical basis of their claims, thereby leaving the field without a fully developed account of its normative foundations.

Feminist theory has long established the links between patriarchal values and violence against which is rooted in hierarchical gendered structures, gendered stereotypes and inequalities. Taken together it is unsurprising that the mother-child relationship is often a key aim for perpetrators who intentionally try to undermine, distort and disrupt it in order to achieve power and control within the family. Understanding the construction of motherhood and fatherhood within the family justice system is therefore crucial in terms of combatting the damaging effects of gender stereotyping within the context of allegations of domestic abuse. With reference to a major empirical study of five European jurisdictions, this lecture will demonstrate how, when domestic abuse takes place, it is mothers who are often the focus of the State in terms of their ability to protect the children from the father perpetrator and at the same time, to sustain the father-parent relationship. Moreover, mothers experiencing domestic abuse are often negatively judged through normative paradigms of ‘good motherhood’, even when evidence shows they are acting to protect their child and enhance their safety in very difficult circumstances. As a result, the study demonstrates how damaging discourses of the ‘good mother’ as fully responsible for their children animate persistent discourses of mother-blame and should be understood as a gendered driver of domestic and family violence.

For the CEL 51st Annual Lecture, President Koen Lenaerts will explain, in the light of the relevant case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, that respect for the value of democracy cannot be limited to protecting the ballot box.
Free and fair elections are vital for a democracy. However, that is not enough. In his view, the value of democracy requires much more. It requires a transparent and accountable government, an active civil society, free and pluralistic media, and minorities who feel protected. It also requires future generations of Europeans to learn and understand how EU demoicracy operates in practice, and to share and cherish the values on which the EU is founded.

One of the first executive orders issued by President Trump in January was EO 14164 designed to “restore the death penalty”, though actually aimed at far more (including making the prison conditions of those commuted by Biden reflect the “monstrosity” of their crimes). We will explore what this means for the 2,400 people on America’s death row, at the same time as reviewing the rising levels of innocent people being executed – my own ‘Post Mortem Project’ indicating that as many as 13 percent of those killed since 1976 have strong innocence cases.

Throughout the popular and scholarly discourse on artificial intelligence (AI) and the impact on works of authorship, several themes continue to dominate the discussion: speed in the production of materials; volume in the capacity of machine outputs; and the nature of the human use of AI for the purposes of authorship, leading to calls from some quarters for new theories of creativity and indeed new legal conceptualisations of originality. All of these concerns converge in the concept of effort; either alleviating it or measuring it for the purposes of authorship. But what is effort? Tech companies might have us believe that a prime objective of generative-AI is to reduce the effort expended by humans, in time, in cost, and in ingenuity. But this has curious legal, social, and cognitive connotations and consequences. In the context of academic and legal practice, the rise in misrepresentation and misconduct is a cause for considerable concern and paradoxically leads to further effort, rather than relieving it. Alongside these issues, reports of general decline in cognitive attention and curiosity suggest not only an undesirable consequence of this machinic delegation, but also a very real loss in the play of authorship. The question is, do we really want to make less effort? Effort, and the loss of it, comes at a cost. Without effort, does the tremendous speed and volume of generative-AI translate merely into idle talk rather than the joy of the work? This lecture will consider the nature of authorship, the attention in creativity, and the potential for a theory of effort in contemporary copyright law.

Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) represent a novel form of digital organisation, designed to raise funds and allocate control for various objectives, ranging from issuing cryptocurrencies and managing dispute resolution processes to stabilising the value of crypto assets. Their defining features of ‘decentralised’ and ‘disintermediated’ introduce significant governance and legal risks. By operating through decentralised ledger technologies (DLT) and other emerging systems, DAOs not only increase cybersecurity vulnerabilities but also present legal risks. DAOs have facilitated capital raising, notably through initial coin offerings (ICOs), and have also functioned as mechanisms for ‘monetary’ stabilisation. These developments highlight the need to reassess regulatory assumptions and adapt legal frameworks to the evolving nature of digital organisations. DAOs have catalysed a new wave of legal studies in organisational law, financial regulation, property law, and private international law. They operate at the intersection of technology, finance, and law, prompting a new wave of legal scholarship in financial regulation, property law, organisational law, and private international law. As these programmable/code-based organisational structures challenge traditional legal forms, a coherent regulatory and conceptual paradigm is needed to ensure trust and safety in this emerging digital space.

Public discourse in the UK has been saturated with controversies and conflicts about the definition and significance of gender and sex, to the extent that some have described this moment as one of gender / sex ‘culture wars’ (Duffy 2025; Cammaerts 2022). In many of these clashes, the legal system is expected to arbitrate disputes about apparently conflicting rights, often by ‘balancing’ the needs and interests of vulnerable groups, such as women, and trans people.
This lecture focuses on the crucial question of the part law has played in the formation of contemporary understandings of gender and sex. It asks when, why and how our legal system became a central forum for debating the meaning and salience of gender and sex; and what the impact of law’s engagement in complex gender and sex disputes has been on those whose rights are called into question.

Understanding how environmental laws, and the ideas underlying those laws, spread, diffuse, or proliferate transnationally is a formidable task. This lecture investigates the global spread of environmental law through the frequently unacknowledged use of models, templates, and best practices. Drawing on a case study of the global diffusion of environmental assessment, this work harnesses the power of computer-assisted research techniques and textual similarity analysis to illuminate the spread of legal tools, terminologies, techniques and mindsets. In so doing, it disrupts the narratives of time, space, and authority that have dominated accounts of environmental law’s spread. Ultimately, this work suggests that the ‘quiet’ activities of lawyers and legal scholars may matter rather more than we are comfortable acknowledging.

Plato in the fourth century BCE penned an indelible sequence of constitutional decline ending in tyranny, as well as a more complex set of possibilities for mixing different constitutional kinds. Two centuries later, Polybius portrayed constitutional change as cyclical, with an eventual collapse of democracy into ‘ochlocracy’ (mob rule) and then reversion to monarchy. These and other ancient authors proposed that a mixed constitution might prevent unwanted political change – an idea that would influence many later generations of political thinkers.

An enthusiast of the Roman mixed constitution, Cicero was elected consul and in that role dramatically curbed the tyrannical ambitions of Catiline. He would later become fatally embroiled in the shifting politics of later generations of ambitious strongmen, while also writing his own theories of constitutional change. This lecture explores Cicero’s life and death as a way to articulate the crises of the late republic.
