SUMMARY:Professor Roberta Romano\, Sterling Professor of Law\, Yale Law School: ‘Are there Empirical Foundations for the Iron Law of Financial Regulation?’
DESCRIPTION:We are very fortunate that in this presentation\, Professor Roberta Romano\, Sterling Professor of Law at Yale Law School\, will be speaking to her paper ‘Are There Empirical Foundations for the Iron Law of Financial Regulation?’ (abstract below and on SSRN at http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4340042). \nThere will be time during the event for debate and discussion of these important and pressing issues for financial market regulation. \nThis is a Zoom event that will take place on Tuesday 6th February\, 1630-1800 London time. Please register using the link below\, and the Zoom link will be emailed by return. \nhttps://lse.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAlcOyvrTooH9bwkwDLrh6LTNWFoa9n6mKz  \nEvent organiser: Professor Jo Braithwaite \nThis event is part of the LSE Law School Financial Market Infrastructure Project:  This series of seminars on the future of FMI\, hosted by the LSE Law School\, was established in 2020 by Professor Jo Braithwaite and Visiting Professor in Practice Dr David Murphy\, in order to provide a forum for interdisciplinary discussion of the most pressing issues relating to this systemic part of the global financial markets. \nSpeaker Bio: \nProfessor Roberta Romano: Roberta Romano is Sterling Professor of Law at Yale Law School and Co-Director of the Yale Law School Center for the Study of Corporate Law. Her research has focused on state competition for corporate charters\, the political economy of takeover regulation\, shareholder litigation\, institutional investor activism and the regulation of securities markets and financial instruments and institutions. Professor Romano is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the European Corporate Governance Institute\, a research associate of the National Bureau for Economic Research\, a past President of the American Law and Economics Association and the Society for Empirical Legal Studies\, and a past co-editor of the Journal of Law\, Economics and Organization. She is a recipient of the 2020 Ronald H. Coase Medal of the American Law and Economics Association\, which is awarded in recognition of major contributions to the field of law and economics and of William & Mary Law School’s Marshall- Wythe Medallion\, which recognizes those who have demonstrated exceptional accomplishment in law. Professor Romano has received the Yale Law Women teaching award three times and is the author of The Genius of American Corporate Law (1993) and The Advantage of Competitive Federalism for Securities Regulation (2002)\, and editor of Foundations of Corporate Law\, 2d ed. (2010). \nAbstract:  \nThis article provides empirical foundations for what I term the “iron law of financial regulation”: following financial crises\, Congress invariably enacts legislation that markedly increases financial regulation\, resulting in a regulatory ratchet in which new statutes are layered atop of existing laws\, and new regulations are grafted onto existing ones\, creating an increasingly complex and opaque regulatory regime that is likely to contain at least some inapt provisions. A key contention is that the shock to the economic system from a financial crisis results in legislation that is different in its impact on regulatory scope and extent from that of legislation enacted in noncrisis times. The article investigates empirically two foundational premises: 1) whether there is an association between financial crises and legislation; and 2) whether legislation enacted in the wake of crises differs from that enacted in noncrisis times as measured by content and regulatory effect. In a hierarchy of relative importance\, the data indicate that crisis-driven statutes are more consequential for the heightening of regulation than noncrisis ones. Using proxies for regulation related to textual restrictions and complexity\, crisis-driven financial legislation has significantly greater regulatory content\, and is followed by significantly higher levels of regulation than noncrisis-driven legislation. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:The Underworlds Series: The Commons as Sites of Global Dis/Ordering
DESCRIPTION:   Register for the event \nAs part of the Underworlds series\, this event engages with the ‘commons’ as sites of global dis/ordering. \nRather than focusing strictly on how the commons are formally (mis)recognised or regulated in (international) law\, the event foregrounds the diverging modes of dis/ordering that practices of commoning can produce. This entails an attentiveness to the new legal spaces that commoning engenders\, as well as the forms of political subjectivity and resistance that animate it. Moving across different sites and scales\, the event explores commoning practices on both a transnational and local level – from a reimagining of international law’s constitution of value and space beyond national jurisdiction to the urban practices of adverse commoning employed under conditions of rapid gentrification. \nThe Speakers \nElsa Noterman is a Lecturer in Human Geography at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL)\, where she is also a Fellow of the Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences. Prior to joining QMUL\, she was a Junior Research Fellow at Queens’ College\, University of Cambridge. She received her PhD in Geography from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her research takes a feminist\, decolonial and critical legal geography approach to property and questions of land and housing justice. In her work\, she considers how everyday collective struggles over land and housing in the U.S.\, and more recently in the UK\, contest normative property regimes\, often in pursuit of equity and repair and through commoning.  \nIsabel Feichtner is Professor of Public Law and International Economic Law at the University of Würzburg. Her research interests cover the distributive effects of (international) law\, the democratization of society\, and the law of the commons and commoning. She explores how institutional experiments\, e.g. the redesign of money or Commons Public Partnerships\, can support social-ecological transformation. Isabel is founder of the Transformation Law Clinic at Würzburg University and currently fellow and chair of the programme ‘Reclaiming   Common Wealth. Towards a Law and Political Economy of Land Commons’ at The New Institute in Hamburg. Her publications include the volume Constitutions of Value (co-edited with Geoff Gordon\, 2023) and the articles ‘Mining for Humanity in the Deep Sea and Outer Space: The Role of Small States and International Law in the Extraterritorial Expansion of Extraction’\, and ‘Critical Scholarship and Responsible Practice of  International Law: How Can the Two Be Reconciled?’. \nEvent Resources \n\nThe New Institute\, Reclaiming Common Wealth: Towards a Law and Political Economy of Land Commons\nElsa Noterman\, ‘Adverse commoning: Tracing contested legal geographies of the urban commons’\n\nThe Series: Underworlds – Sites and Struggles of Global Dis/Ordering \nEngagement with practices of global ordering is often guided towards specific locations and legacies: the sovereign state\, the formal sources and standards of international law\, the intricacies of global diplomacy\, the historical juncture and its (anti-)heroes\, the international palaces of hope in Geneva\, New York\, or The Hague. These explorations entail ideas of where power resides and where it is to be unmasked or undone – ideas implicitly grounded in modernist geographies\, temporalities\, and subjectivities. Starting from the limits of these familiar perspectives\, this lecture and workshop series traces the multiple ways in which these sites\, actors\, and events are cabined\, crossed\, and cut apart by alternative material arteries\, lineages\, and languages of global dis/ordering. \nThe series takes as starting point that authority and order are not fixed properties of specific actors or institutions\, but the result of ongoing material processes of ordering and world-making. As such\, it traces unconventional forms and sites of global dis/ordering – from raw materials to projections of hope – as material\, infrastructural\, and discursive compositions that shape patterns of power. The encounter between old- and new materialist\, Marxist and decolonial methodologies and modes of critique is one of the key objectives of this series. Its aim\, however\, is not only methodological: it aspires to inspire new ethical and political openings that attend to our inevitable complicity in taking part in these processes\, and reveal new modes of resistance and refusal\, of struggle and sociality. These interventions are not narrowly targeted at the old nemeses of critique – the state\, the truth\, the universal – but work from within both entrenched and emergent material sites and practices of dis/ordering: oceans\, oil / coal\, breath\, debt\, commons\, frontier(s)\, waste\, hope\, wild / feral\, vessels. \nProgramme (all events take place online at 14.00 BST) \nOceans (with Renisa Mawani and Surabhi Ranganathan) – 11 October 2023 \nOil / Coal (with Lys Kulamadayil and On Barak) – 25 October 2023 \nBreath (with Daniela Gandorfer and Jean-Thomas Tremblay) – 22 November 2023 \nDebt (with Vasuki Nesiah and Kojo Koram) – 13 December 2023 \nCommons (with Isabel Feichtner and Elsa Noterman) – 24 January 2024 \nFrontier(s) (with Christine Schwöbel-Patel and Cait Storr) – 28 February 2024 \nWaste (with Heather Davis and Michael Hennessy Picard) – 27 March 2024 \nHope (with Claire Colebrook and David Chandler) – 24 April 2024 \nWild / Feral (with Irus Braverman and Floris De Witte) – 29 May 2024 \nVessels (with Rinaldo Walcott and Itamar Mann) – 19 June 2024 \nThe series is convened by Marie Petersmann and Dimitri Van Den Meerssche and co-organised by QMUL (the Institute for Humanities and Social Sciences and the Centre for Law and Society in a Global Context) and the LSE Law School. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:The Underworlds Series: Debt as Site of Global Dis/Ordering
DESCRIPTION:   Register for the event \nAs part of the Underworlds series\, this event focuses on debt as site of global dis/ordering. \nRather than concentrating only on how (sovereign) debt is formally recognised or regulated in international law\, this event aims to foreground the material patterns of global dis/ordering that debt generates. This entails an attentiveness to the histories of violence that are thereby enacted or amplified\, as well as a focus on practices of resistance and expressions of political subjectivity that emerge in relation to the construction and circulation of debt. How is this fabrication of debt implicated in the profoundly unequal configurations of global ordering that emerged after the formal end of empire? Which legal forms and institutions shaped and were shaped by these formations of debt and the uncommon wealth they sustained? Inversely\, which practices of redistribution and reparation can be articulated in relation to the unpayable debt thereby accrued? \nThe Speakers \nVasuki Nesiah is Professor of Practice in Human Rights and International Law at the Gallatin School\, NYU. She writes on the history and politics of international law\, global feminisms\, reparations and decolonization. Her current focus is on her book project Reading the Ruins: Slavery\, Colonialism and International Law\, as well as a co-edited handbook on Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) which is under contract with Elgar.  Two recent articles that are relevant to the conversation on debt include her article on sovereign debt and reparations titled “A Double Take on Debt” which appeared in the Osgoode Hall Law Journal Volume 59: Issue 1 (Winter 2022) and her article on microcredit\, household debt and neoliberal feminism titled “Indebted: The Cruel Optimism of Leaning-in to Empowerment” which was first published as a chapter in the edited volume Governance Feminisms\, Univ. of Minnesota Press (2018). Past work includes her recently completed book International Conflict Feminism which is forthcoming with UPenn. Press in 2024 and her co-edited volume\, A Global History of Bandung and Critical Traditions in International Law (Cambridge 2017).  Nesiah is a founding member of Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL). \nKojo Koram is a Senior Lecturer in Law at Birkbeck School of Law\, University of London. Prior to taking up this role\, he was a Lecturer at the School of Law at the University of Essex between 2016-2018. He was called to the Bar of England and Wales in 2011 and then received his PhD in 2017. In 2018\, the Association for the Study of Law\, Culture and the Humanities awarded his PhD the Julien Mezey Dissertation Award for the dissertation that most promises to enrich and advance interdisciplinary scholarship at the intersection of law\, culture\, and the humanities. In 2022\, he published his debut book Uncommon Wealth: Britain and the Aftermath of Empire (John Murray 2022) which was nominated for the 2022 Orwell Prize for Political Writing. Alongside his academic work\, Kojo has also written for publications as varied as the Guardian\, the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, the Nation\, Dissent and the New Statesman. \nEvent Resources \n\nBamako\nLife and Debt\nVasuki Nesiah\, A Double Take on Debt: Reparations Claims and Regimes of Visibility in a Politics of Refusal\nVasuki Nesiah\, Indebted: The Cruel Optimism of Leaning in to Empowerment\nKojo Koram\, Uncommon Wealth: Britain and the Aftermath of Empire\n\nThe Series: Underworlds – Sites and Struggles of Global Dis/Ordering \nEngagement with practices of global ordering is often guided towards specific locations and legacies: the sovereign state\, the formal sources and standards of international law\, the intricacies of global diplomacy\, the historical juncture and its (anti-)heroes\, the international palaces of hope in Geneva\, New York\, or The Hague.

SUMMARY:Underworlds – Breath as Site of Global Dis/Ordering
DESCRIPTION:    Register for the event \nAs part of the Underworlds series\, this event focuses on breath as site of global dis/ordering. \nRather than concentrating only on how the right to breathe is formally recognised (or not) in international law\, this event foregrounds the patterns of dis/ordering that are embedded in infrastructures of toxicity\, and the unevenly allocated affordances of breath and breathing these engender. This entails an attentiveness to forms of political resistance\, new approaches to law and normativity\, and modalities of political subjectivity that this focus on breath and breathability can foster (as investigated by the Logische Phantasie Lab’s Decentralized Right to Breathe). How\, Breathing Aesthetics asks\, are forces of ‘extractive capitalism\, imperialism\, and structural racism’ tied to and materialized in the ‘contamination\, weaponization\, and monetization of air’? Which political coalitions and practices of resistance can emerge from such emergent configurations of breathing injustice? \nThe Speakers \nDaniela Gandorfer is a lecturer at University of Westminster Law School\, London\, an affiliate of the Ethics Institute at Northeastern University\, Boston\, and the co-founder of Loph\, a non-profit organization dedicated to decentralized and community-based approaches towards governance at the intersection of climate change\, political reorganization\, and new digital technologies. Before joining Westminster University\, Daniela held postdoc positions at Princeton University and UC Santa Cruz\, California. She received her PhD from Princeton University and is currently pursuing a MSc in Finance at LSE. Daniela’s research focuses on legal theory as well as on scientific and technological frontier spaces – such as web3\, quantum physics\, and psychedelics – and their implications for emerging forms of normativity and governance. She is the recipient of the 2021 ASciNA Young Scientist Award\, and has co-edited the Research Handbook in Law and Literature (Edward Elgar Publishing)  as well as the Theory & Event special issue ‘Matterphorical’ (Johns Hopkins Press). Her book Matterphorics: On the Laws of Theory is forthcoming with Duke University Press. \nJean-Thomas Tremblay is Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at York University\, in Toronto. He is the author of Breathing Aesthetics (Duke University Press\, 2022)\, a co-author\, with Steven Swarbrick\, of Negative Life: The Cinema of Extinction (Northwestern University Press\, 2024)\, and a co-editor\, with Andrew Strombeck\, of Avant-Gardes in Crisis: Art and Politics in the Long 1970s (State University of New York Press\, 2021). Jean-Thomas’s current project\, ‘Eco-subtraction: Downsizing the Environmental Humanities’\, is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. His monograph in progress\, The Art of Climate Inaction\, challenges the absorption of climate action by expansionist models under late liberalism. \nEvent Resources \n\nJean-Thomas Tremblay\, Breathing Aesthetics\nArthur Rose\, Asbestos – The Last Modernist Object\nTimothy Choy\, Ecological Reparation: Museum of Breathers\nA quote from Patricia J William’s Alchemy of Race:\n\n‘In discarding rights altogether\, one discards a symbol too deeply enmeshed in the psyche of the oppressed to lose without trauma and much resistance. Instead\, society must give them away. Unlock them from reification by giving them to slaves. Give them to trees. Give them to cows. Give them to history. Give them to rivers and rocks. Give to all of society’s objects and untouchables the rights of privacy\, integrity\, and self-assertion; give them distance and respect. Flood them with the animating spirit that rights mythology fires in this country’s most oppressed psyches\, and wash away the shrouds of inanimate-object status\, so that we may say not that we own gold but that a luminous golden spirit owns us’. \n\nVisualizations (of a breathing instance; minted as NFT)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Series: Underworlds – Sites and Struggles of Global Dis/Ordering \nEngagement with practices of global ordering is often guided towards specific locations and legacies: the sovereign state\, the formal sources and standards of international law\, the intricacies of global diplomacy\, the historical juncture and its (anti-)heroes\, the international palaces of hope in Geneva\, New York\, or The Hague.

SUMMARY:Underworlds – Oil / Coal as Sites of Global Dis/Ordering
DESCRIPTION:   Register for the event \nAs part of the Underworlds series\, this event focuses on oil / coal as sites of global dis/ordering. \nRather than concentrating only on how the commodities of oil and coal are formally framed or regulated as objects of international law\, this event aims to foreground the patterns and imaginaries of global dis/ordering that these materials generate. It thereby aims to trace the multiple entanglements between fossil fuels and the infrastructural and institutional conduits of global power. This also entails an attentiveness to the relation between the carbon world and forms of political violence\, collective resistance\, and the chains and geographies of global capitalism through which these unfold. How are histories of empire and its reverberations in current economic and geopolitical conditions intertwined with the materiality of carbon – as expressed in patterns of ‘coalonalism’? Which arteries of power and authority can be traced to the infrastructures of rule that the extraction of oil and coal require and enable? How can these be diagnosed and disrupted? \nThe Speakers \nLys Kulamadayil is an international lawyer and a senior research fellow at Helmut-Schmidt University. Her research interests include\, among other things\, minerals\, climate change\, ecology\, corruption and money-laundering\, distributive justice\, and the structures and processes of the profession fields of international law. She has published in the London Review of Int’l Law\, Leiden Journal of Int’l Law\, Journal of the History of Int’l Law\, and Transnational Legal Theory. In her forthcoming monograph The Pathology of Plenty: Natural Resources in International Law Lys explores the role international law has played in the extraction of mineral resources in post-colonial countries.

SUMMARY:Underworlds – Oceans as Sites of Global Dis/Ordering
DESCRIPTION:   Register for the event \nAs part of the Underworlds series\, this event focuses on oceans as sites of global dis/ordering. \nRather than concentrating only on how oceans are formally framed or regulated as objects of international legal ordering\, this event foregrounds the patterns and imaginaries of global dis/ordering that thinking through the ocean can reveal. Which material historical conditions have shaped the current legal constitution of oceanic space? Which new legal and political temporalities\, geographies\, and subjectivities might ‘thinking oceanically’ generate? How are international law and the ocean co-constituted – through its specific spatial zones\, its depths and bottoms\, its vexing vents\, and amphibious legalities? Which critical practices can enable us to think and act in unruly oceans – through its waves\, marine mammals and blue legalities – as the ever-shifting terrain of violence\, struggle\, and political imagination? \nThe Speakers \nSurabhi Ranganathan is Professor of International Law at the University of Cambridge\, and a fellow of King’s College\, Cambridge. Educated in Delhi\, Bangalore\, New York\, and Cambridge\, she has also taught at Warwick and\, as visiting professor\, at the Graduate Institute\, Geneva.

She has also recently co-edited a special issue of SAACLR on ‘Colonial Loot and Its Restitution’. Ranganathan is Editor-in-Chief of the Leiden Journal of International Law and Deputy Director of the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law.

SUMMARY:A theory of international taxation
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr Eduardo Baistrocchi (LSE Law School) \nThis event is online only.  The zoom link is here: \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lse.zoom.us/j/82996159042\n\nMeeting ID: 829 9615 9042 \nA Theory of International Taxation combines qualitative and quantitative analyses to shed light on the shaping of the international tax regime (ITR) over the last century. It offers a theory of the ITR as the product of the strategic interaction between three small groups: international investors\, tax hubs and market jurisdictions. These actors play different yet interrelated roles within the same ecosystem. The analyses show how each of the three small groups has influenced the emergence and governance structure of the ITR since its inception in the 1920s. The analyses cover the impact of shocks on the interaction between the three small groups. The book submits a normative proposal to induce the emergence of a fourth actor\, which would represent the large group of developing countries\, making the ITR more inclusive. Two unprecedented databases of\, first\, the input from the three small groups on the ITR structure\, and second\, tax treaty disputes involving the three small groups support the analyses. The group size paradox and antitrust law concepts ground the theoretical framework. \n  \n\n\n	Related
