Project
on International
Courts and Tribunal
U.S. Attitudes and Practices with regard to International Courts and Tribunals
In the fall of 2004, PICT launched a new initiative: the project on U.S. Attitudes and Practices with regard to International Courts and Tribunals. The purpose of this initiative is to provide a serious analysis and description of the motives for the U.S. historical ambivalence and recent hostility towards some institutional mechanisms for the pursuit of international rule of law, and the impact it has on the development of the international judiciary. We believe that such an intiative can contribute to a constructive debate, both within the U.S. and internationally, on the value of an international rule of law administered by independent international courts and tribunals.
This project is funded by the JEHT Foundation and the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. It is expected to last 18 months. A preparatory meeting, set for late Spring 2005, will bring together selected scholars and practitioners to contribute and discuss papers on key courts and issues. A second conference, to be held in the Spring of 2006, in the form of a public colloquium, will bring together decision-makers in Washington DC, international legal professionals, and the media with the aim to build upon the accomplishments of the first meeting and to lead to a succinct policy paper to be distributed to key decision-makers. In addition, we expect the papers to be produced for the conference to result in an edited volume.
If you have any questions about this new project, please address them to:cesare.romano@nyu.edu.
