The dispute settlement bodies that will be discussed include the International Court of Justice, the WTO Dispute Settlement Body, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, mixed arbitral tribunals between a State and a private party, such as investor-State arbitration, inter-State arbitral tribunals, ad hoc tribunals, and human rights bodies.
The seminar will be structured around the specific research interests of the researchers who enroll for the seminar. The topics to be discussed are thus flexible, although an effort will be made to find themes of interest to many of the participants rather than focusing on highly specialized issues. A large part of the seminar will revolve around presentations of work in progress by researchers. Participants will be expected to read and comment upon that work. There will also be an opportunity to bring in one or more visitors who might be of interest to the participants.
