SUMMARY:LSE Law School Cinema: Movie Nights – The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Holmes dropped out of Stanford University at nineteen to found Theranos\, a healthcare startup company that she claimed would revolutionise the biomedical industry. The company became the darling of investors when it announced that it developed a device to automate blood tests using a quicker and cheaper process than the existing devices and with only a microscopic amount of blood taken from a finger prick. Its valuation rocketed and Elizabeth Holmes became “the youngest self-made female billionaire in the world\,” according to Forbes. But investigative reporting by the Wall Street Journal and leaks from whistle-blowers revealed that the device called “The Edison” never worked consistently. The whole story was a fraud. Elizabeth Holmes turned from the “golden girl” of Silicon Valley into a fraudster. \nJohn Carreyrou\, the Wall Street Journal reporter who exposed the fraud\, tells this story in his book “Bad Blood.” The book does an excellent job in showing how Elizabeth Holmes and her (business) partner Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani deceived the investors and employees of Theranos. But it says little about the character of Holmes\, what was in her head\, and whether she genuinely believed in the business\, was a victim herself\, or was the mastermind behind a calculated fraud. This is what the 2019 documentary “The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley” tries to achieve. \nPlease note: Places will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Ambivalence in (un)certain times
DESCRIPTION:In the wake of the devastating Israel-Gaza war\, Shani Orgad reflects on the ‘war on ambivalence’ in current discourse and how the insistent discourse of either/or is geared towards humiliation. Instead\, Orgad explores the potential value of ambivalence: rather that a deficit of certainty or a failure of definitive thinking\, ambivalence is proposed as a critical sensibility for our (un)certain times; a way of thinking and feeling for engaging our intellectual and political investments in academia\, in the classroom\, in our research\, and beyond. \nThis event will be held on Thursday 7th of March from 17:30 – 19:00 in the Student Common Room. \nSpeaker: Professor Shani Orgad \nChair: Professor Charles Stafford \nThis event will be on a first-come-first-serve basis. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:EVENT CANCELLED - Bjarne Tellmann on the changing role of the General Counsel
DESCRIPTION:Regrettably\, this event has been cancelled. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and will inform you here about future dates. \nBjarne P. Tellmann\, General Counsel and member of the Executive of Haleon and author of “Building an Outstanding Legal Team”\, considers the changing role of the General Counsel in a world and legal industry that is undergoing rapid innovation and disruption. \nThe challenge: In an era of exponential change\, the role of the general counsel (GC) has become one of the most complex\, intense\, and challenging in the corporate world. GCs must lead\, unify\, and inspire diverse teams of people across the globe with subtlety and diplomacy. The stakes have never been higher and the consequences of getting it wrong can be existential. GCs must do this with ever-fewer resources\, and at a time when the legal profession itself is undergoing disruption and change. \nThe response: To succeed in this environment\, GCs must become Legal CEOs. They must lead\, communicate\, inspire\, reinforce culture\, manage talent\, formulate\, and execute strategies\, ensure efficacy\, anticipate\, and manage risk and manage quality control – all in addition to being top-notch lawyers. \nBased on more than 25 years of experience in Europe\, Asia and the United States\, Bjarne shares his views on career paths and serendipity\, the realities of the 21st century legal organization\, and what digital transformation means for the profession. \nBjarne is GC and member of the Executive at Haleon\, a FTSE 20 company and a global leader in consumer health\, with long-standing brands\, including Sensodyne\, Panadol\, Advil\, Theraflu\, and Centrum. He was previously CLO\, General Counsel and member of the Executive at Pearson\, a FTSE 100. Prior to that he worked across Europe\, Asia\, and the United States in senior capacities with Coca-Cola\, most recently as Associate General Counsel of The Coca-Cola Company. He has also held positions at Kimberly-Clark\, Sullivan & Cromwell\, and White & Case. \nBjarne\, who has served on various public and private boards\, sits on The Futures Group of the UK Civil Justice Council\, which advises the Government on the long-term impact of technology on the administration of justice. \nHe writes regularly on leadership\, disruption\, and digital transformation. His book\, Building an Outstanding Legal Team came out in 2017 and he has a forthcoming law review article on digital transformation in the Journal of Business and Technology Law. \nBjarne has been an Academic Visitor in the Faculty of Law at the University of Oxford\, and is an alumnus of Harvard Business School\, The University of Chicago\, and The London School of Economics. \nHe has received numerous awards\, including Chambers’ “GC Influencers Global 100”\, “General Counsel of the Year” at The British Legal Awards\, and Legal Era’s “General Counsel of the Year”. \nBjarne P.

SUMMARY:LSE Law School Cinema: Movie Nights - Fragile Ecologies
DESCRIPTION:Organised by Marie Petersmann (LSE Law School) and Maria Christina Achilleoude (LSE LLM student)\, in the presence of director Susan Shuppli\, curator María Montero Sierra (Head of Program at TBA21–Academy) and artist Leonard Maassen \nHow do we come to terms\, and how can we make sense\, of fragile ecologies? How can aesthetical representations and performances help us relate to vanishing ecologies and experience their slow disappearance\, when our legal vocabularies and procedures fall short? Join us for a screening and discussion – in the presence of film director Susan Schuppli\, curator María Montero Sierra\, and artist Leonard Maassen – of five short movies that address the limitations of international environmental and climate law and propose different modes of sensing and relating to deep\, hidden\, and often invisible water-based ecosystems and their agential properties\, as suggested by Indigenous feminist practitioners. The event will end with a reception for all participants. \nSusan Schuppli\, ‘Cold Rights’ (2022) [13:25mins]: \nFrom the thawing of permafrost to the melting of polar ice caps\, from the disintegration of sea ice to the disappearance of mountain glaciers\, the changing material state of ice has direct consequences for rights-based thinking and action under the accelerated conditions of global warming. The ‘right to be cold’ is one such provocation. This demand\, as it was popularly referred to\, was dismissed by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights in 2005 when Inuk activist Sheila Watt-Cloutier filed a petition ‘Seeking Relief from Violations Resulting from Global Warming Caused by Acts and Omissions of the United States’ on behalf of herself and sixty-two Inuit people living in the Arctic regions of Canada and the USA. Yet the transformation of a thermostatic condition into a political and legal claim for ‘cold rights’ has never been more urgent. Cold politics thus demands an engagement with a climatic sense of justice rather than a partitioning of rights. \nLeonard Maassen\, ‘Heart of Glacier’ (2023) [8:49mins]: \nHeart of a Glacier explores the notion of ecological grief. How do humans come to terms with environmental change? Video and sound recordings made at a depth of 30 metres in the receding Morteratsch Glacier create an immersive space that invites us to attune to the textures of this remote water world. Uncannily evocative of microscopic biological matter\, the work brings into focus our emotional responses to the lives of landscape forms at the microscopic scale. Documenting the rapidly vanishing and rarely accessible ice draws attention to the melting process as much as it formulates a way of perceiving the environment not as a passive envelope for human action\, but an evolving more-than-human co-creation. We can come here to dwell and reflect as we\, as a species\, rapidly and irreversibly change our environment. What is the role of nostalgia in a time of environmental turmoil? What are the ethical consequences of looking for beauty in the environmental changes we are driving? \npantea\, ‘⚪’ (2022) [5:44mins]: \nThis short movie marks the artistic research about/with ⚪ on the plant Sundew living in wetlands. Three distinct dialogues join together to form the narrative\, which also serves as an invitation to acknowledge and further the collective effort done around wetlands\, mainly in the context of the ‘Becoming Fresh & Salty Drops (of water)’ programme supported by TBA21–Academy and curated by María Montero Sierra. \nInhabitants (Mariana Silva and Pedro Neves Marques)\, ‘What Is Deep Sea Mining? (2018-2022)  \nEpisode 1: ‘Tools for Ocean Literacy’ [6:45mins]: \nWhat is Deep Sea Mining? ‘Tools for Ocean Literacy’ is a cartographical survey of technologies that have contributed to ocean literacy and seabed mapping. Structured around a single shot along a vertical axis\, the episode inquires about deep sea mining and the types of geologic formations where it is set to occur\, particularly hydrothermal vents. Understanding the process of deep sea mining demands not only a temporal investigation – its main dates\, legal and corporate landmarks\, and scientific breakthroughs – but also a spatial axis connecting the seafloor to outer space cartographic technologies. After all\, we know less about the ocean depths than about the universe beyond this blue planet. \nEpisode 5: ‘The Pacific Precedent’ [6:27mins]: \nThe first deep sea mining tests took place in the Pacific in 2015\, in the territorial waters of Papua New Guinea. This has brought strong contestation by local communities\, whose lands have been expropriated and whose economy depends on fishing. Resistance by local and Indigenous groups has been exemplary in territorial waters of Pacific island nations states\, where numerous initiatives – among them PANG and Solwara Warriors – have emerged to inform the population and protect its common resources. While mining itself never began commercially\, the mining company’s recent bankruptcy has reportedly left the Papua New Guinea government with a $120 million debt. Now that Pacific nations have seen the exploitative outcome of the corporate Global North’s deep sea mining intentions in Papua New Guinea’s territorial waters\, PANG and others are advocating for a deep sea mining ban. This episode is narrated by Maureen Penjueli from the Pacific Network on Globalisation (PANG)\, a regional watchdog\, established in 2009\, that promoted Pacific peoples’ rights to be self-determining\, advocating for free\, prior\, and informed consent for Indigenous peoples of the Bismarck Sea in accordance with international law. Addressing issues of scale\, political representation\, and resource politics\, Penjueli reiterates the importance of the oceans’ role in securing the carbon equation and contributing to planetary resilience. As such\, she calls for the possibility of making politics from an oceanic point of view\, that learns from the Pacific Nation’s perspective. \nPlease note: Places will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Decolonising Criminal Justice (THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED)
DESCRIPTION:There are few areas of public life where a reappraisal from a colonial perspective is more needed than in the field of criminal justice. Where are the marks of our colonial past on today’s criminal justice system? What pain has colonialism caused in the field?  What hurt and distress does it still cause today\, both domestically and around the world?  What can be done to decolonise criminal justice? \nSpeaker: David Lammy is a Visiting Professor at LSE Law School and the Shadow Foreign Secretary \n \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Ratio Launch 2023/24
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the launch of the Ratio 2023/24 issue. Mark your calendars for Wednesday\, October 25th\, starting at 4.30pm in the Student Common Room with a welcome speech by David Kershaw\, Dean of LSE Law School. \nYou’ll have the chance to meet our amazing contributors whose insightful work has made this magazine truly exceptional. And the best part? You’ll receive your very own printed copy of the magazine\, hot off the press! \nBut that’s not all – we’ve prepared some delightful surprises to make this launch event even more memorable. So\, don’t miss this opportunity to be part of an exciting evening celebrating the launch of Ratio 2023/2024\, followed by a drinks reception! \nThe new release of Ratio 2023/24 can be found here. \nSpeakers: \nNiamh Moloney\nJo Braithwaite\nDavid Kershaw \nSarah Paterson\nSiva Thambisetty\nGerry Simpson\nAndrew Scott\nMatt Rowley\nReem Abbass Moustafa  \nChairs: Floris de Witte and Sarah Trotter \n‘For the betterment of society’ – these are familiar words to anyone who has set foot in LSE. The past months have given the School’s founding purpose a renewed relevance. High inflation and economic instability have severely affected social welfare\, prompting what has come to be known as the cost of living crisis. It is this context in which we set out to write the present edition of Ratio\, which tries to inform readers of the key developments that have taken place at the LSE Law School over the last academic year. \nWorking towards the betterment of society is not just a mission statement\, it is a lived reality at LSE Law. The new issue provides yet another striking illustration of this. Both students and staff have tried to understand\, analyse\, and leave a positive impact on some of the most pressing debates of our times. Professor Niamh Moloney chaired the Irish Taxation and Welfare Commission\, generating a report whose significance has been compared to that penned by the late LSE director William Beveridge in the 1940s\, a milestone in establishing Britain’s welfare state. Dr Roxana Willis published pathbreaking ethnographic research on life in a disadvantaged housing estate in England\, calling for a rethinking of the criminal justice system. A group of PhD researchers created a reading group to critically reflect on the economic problems surrounding us in London and the role which law plays in shaping them. \nBut there is\, of course\, so much more that is happening at the Law School. In the following pages\, we will take you through the main changes\, initiatives\, and achievements that materialised during the 2022/23 academic session. You will learn about the new research which our colleagues have produced\, such as Professor Martin Loughlin’s monograph Against Constitutionalism which has electrified the constitutional theory community; the impressive projects which alumni like Timothy Franklin\, founder of the National School of Journalism and Public Discourse in India\, have spearheaded; the many events we held over the course of the year\, in which have covered topics ranging from the future of legal sex to the demise of the FTSE 100; as well as the work which has been done by and for students\, including the new common room. \nDr Jan Zglinski\, General Editor\, Ratio 2023/24 \nWe can’t wait to share this special occasion with you and look forward to seeing you on the 25th of October in our cosy and beautiful Student Common Room. \n \n\n\n	Related
