2007 - New Courts in the Asia-Pacific Region

The Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives (University of Victoria) and the Asian Law Centre (University of Melbourne) will convene a conference in Victoria on “New Courts in the Asia-Pacific Region” from July 13 to 15, 2007 in Victoria, Canada.

Participation in this unique event is by invitation only, and will enable invited scholars to contribute to an international workshop showcasing scholarship on new courts and judicialization in the Asia-Pacific, as well as providing an opportunity to debate findings and implications. It is anticipated that a publication will result from this workshop.

The Asian Law Centre and the Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives have had a long-standing relationship. For example, the Director of the Asian Law Centre, Professor Lindsey, was a Visiting Fellow at the Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives in 1999. The former Directors of the two Centres have also regularly contributed scholarship to academic conferences and events. This will be, however, the first collaborative international event between the two Centres.
