2013 Lalive Lecture was delivered by Prof. Alain Pellet

On 5 June 2013, LALIVE, together with the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies (HEID),  hosted the seventh Lalive lecture in Geneva. This year’s lecture was delivered by Prof. Alain Pellet, Professor at the University Paris-Ouest, Nanterre-La Défense, Past President of the International Law Commission of the United Nations, and President of the Société française pour le Droit international. Professor Pellet’s lecture was entitled “La jurisprudence de la Cour internationale de justice dans les sentences CIRDI“. The lecture was followed by a cocktail reception.

The purpose of the lecture series, which commenced in 2007 with H. E. Judge Rosalyn Higgins, President of the International Court of Justice, was to create a forum for intellectual discussion on recent developments in the interface between public and private international law. The series was named in honour of Me Jean-Flavien Lalive and Professor Pierre Lalive, founders of the firm, who have dedicated their professional and academic careers to the interaction between these two fields. (For more information, see the Academia section of LALIVE’s website.)
