A Stream on “State and Law in the Interwar Period”
as part of the 16th Annual International Conference on Law
15-18 July 2019, Athens, Greece
Sponsored by the Athens Journal of Law
The Law Unit of ATINER will hold a Stream on “State and Law in the Interwar Period”, 15-18 July 2019, Athens, Greece as part of the 16th Annual International Conference on Law sponsored by the Athens Journal of Law and the Athens Journal of History.
The purpose of the interdisciplinary miniature stream is to introduce such legal institutions that have an effect on the development of the legal systems of different countries and are much in evidence in the contemporary legal reforms related to the foundation of the modern state and law in the interwar period. The combined examination of history and law can draw the attention of the legislators and legal historians of the 20th and 21st Century to the importance of such legal institutions which, if observed from the point of view of legal history, can assist modern codification. The historical legal institutions appearing in the law currently in effect, with the aid of a certain legal “restoration”, can help their understanding, however it does not simply require some sort of theoretical, dogmatic examination but also the analysis of the legal practice and the praxis. Due to the topic (State and Law in the Interwar Period) of the interdisciplinary stream, this may not only be interesting for people working in the field of law or legal history, but can also get the attention of historians and scientists and researchers working on other, various fields. Through the complex and comparative assessment of the different branches of law, we can come up with a general picture on the development and the role in contemporary legal development of each and every legal institution. You may participate as presenter of one paper, or observer.
