Fasten
your seatbelts, fellow international law enthusiasts! Your very own Georgetown
Journal of International Law is hosting a symposium next Friday April 10 on the
Gewirz 12th Floor. The theme of the panel discussion will be World Cops Without World Courts, but topics will also include: the foreign affairs
power and modern Supreme Court jurisprudence, practitioners before international
institutions, and alternate venues for international law. A reception will
follow closing remarks from 4:45 until 5:30.
To the
avid SCOTUSblog follower, the foreign affairs power is no stranger. Just last
November SCOTUS heard arguments
in Zivotofsky v. Kerry. While the
case dealt with a relatively tame statute that regulated the Secretary of
State’s conduct, the foreign affairs power may have larger significance in the
coming months due to the multilateral Iranian treaty the United States is
negotiating as we speak. If issues like these interest you, be sure to join
us next Friday!
