SUMMARY:Evidence of the evidence: An empirical study into the elements of customary international law
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Massimo Lando (City University of Hong Kong)\nChair: Yusra Suedi(LSE) \n\nIt is the established view that States are central to the formation of customary international law\, understood as the dialectic process by which customary rules come into existence. States are the origin of practice and opinio juris\, evidence of which they provide by acting on the international plane. However\, States become disassociated from the formation of customary rules when the existence of those rules has to be ascertained\, in a process known as identification. Massimo will argue that\, because human agency is inevitable in custom identification\, the States’ influence on determining which customary rules exist and their content is much more limited than it is generally thought to be. To support this argument\, Massimo will build on the doctrinal view of customary international law as the union of State practice and opinio juris. Massimo will draw on empirical data from the judicial decisions of international courts and tribunals to show that custom identification is a process solidly in the hands of individuals\, namely judges\, and not States. Because of how judges select evidence to identify customary rules\, States are bound by customary international law which either is not representative of widespread or extensive practice\, or has been identified in a biased manner. \nBio \n\n \n\nMassimo Lando is a general international lawyer. He is Assistant Professor at the Law School of City University of Hong Kong. He holds a PhD from the University of Cambridge\, was Associate Legal Officer at the International Court of Justice and is a member of the Bar of England and Wales. \nThis seminar is organised by the Public International Law Research Hub \n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Demystifying the characteristics and security of digital assets\, cryptoassets and cryptocurrencies
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Esther Mallowah (ICAEW Head of Tech Policy)\, Racheal Muldoon (Cyber Barrister)\, Marizah Minhat (Associate Professor in Finance and Economics\, University of Bradford Visiting Fellow\, LSE Law School) and Adam Roney (Founder and CEO\, Calls9). \nThe event will be chaired by Eva Micheler\, who is a professor at LSE Law specialising in company law. \nAt this stage\, a universally agreed taxonomy or classification of cryptoassets does not exist. A number of government bodies have adopted different approaches. The Law Commission has recently introduced crypto-tokens as a subset of digital assets in their consultation paper. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has issued guidance on cryptoassets and identified exchange tokens (sometimes known as cryptocurrencies) outside its regulatory perimeter. But the discussions on accounting treatment by the IFRS Interpretation Committee\, are mainly framed within cryptocurrencies\, which are a subset of cryptoassets. Unregulated tokens and related digital asset advisory\, wallet\, and trading businesses can incentivise arbitrage opportunities and compromise security. The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has acknowledged a proliferation of fraud and abuse involving\, among other misconduct\, the misuse of holders’ personal data\, theft of cryptoassets\, or the assets could simply cease to exist\, where users’ accounts are suddenly frozen or inaccessible causing crisis of confidence. As the UK hopes to become a global hub for cryptoasset technology and investment\, regulatory initiatives need to catch up. We will discuss further issues and propose governance measures that could be implemented to better regulate this space. Views will be offered through short presentations of four speakers. \n\n\n	Related
