ASIL-AU CLE INSTITUTE COURSE SERIES (3 of 3) on HUMAN RIGHTS: The Prosecution of Gender-based Crimes by International Criminal Courts: An assessment of successes and failures

Event Information
Wednesday, June 12, 2013
ASIL Headquarters, Tillar House
Washington, DC

TIME: 5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. (ET) The American Society of International Law and the American University Washington College of Law's Academy on Human Rights and Humanitarian Law are pleased to present a three-part continuing legal education (CLE) series to provide a forum for the better understanding and discussion of human rights and humanitarian law theory. In the last two decades international criminal courts such as the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and the International Tribunal for Rwanda have issued judgments characterizing gender-based crimes as war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, depending on the context in which the crimes had been perpetrated. On the other hand, as of today, the International Criminal Court delivered the first judgment in the Case of Thomas Lubanga Dyilo in 2012, but did not consider the alleged perpetration of gender-based crimes by the defendant because the Office of the Prosecutor failed to incorporate those crimes among the charges brought against Lubanga Dyilo. Later on, the ICC accepted the inclusion of victims of sexual violence within the scope of the reparations to be awarded in this case. Furthermore, the ICC is currently considering gender-based crimes in the Katanga Case, the decision of which is forthcoming. The speakers in this panel are all experienced judges of international tribunals who participated in the decision of cases where gender-based crimes were involved. They will assess the successes and failures of these international courts to provide redress to the victims of sexual violence.

Event Information

Duke in Washington Office – 1201 New York Ave. NW, Suite 1110, Washington, D.C.

Royal Dutch Petroleum, decided in April 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court sharply cut back on ATS suits. A panel of leading scholars, practitioners and former government officials will assess the future of human rights litigation after Kiobel. This event is cosponsored by the American Society of International Law and Duke University School of Law. Speakers will include Curtis A. Bradley, Duke Law (moderator); John B. Bellinger, Arnold & Porter; Legal Adviser to the Secretary of State from 2005 to 2009; Laurence R. Helfer, Duke Law; Catherine Powell, Fordham Law and Georgetown Law; and Ralph G.

2nd Annual International Conference on Law, Regulations and Public Policy (LRPP 2013)

Event Information
Monday, June 17, 2013 - Tuesday, June 18, 2013,
Hotel Fort Canning
Event Link

The Global Science & Technology Forum (GSTF) will host a conference on laws regulations and policies in relation to science and technology. The laws of the land lay the foundations of peace and order, and to ensure people progress in all aspects of their lives – whether in business, education, travel, health or recreation. The role of public officials is to create, scrutinize, implement and uphold the laws in order to protect the rights of every individual, corporate entity or institution. Educators of law thus possess the task of not only shaping each and every generation of legal practitioners into knowledgeable and responsible agents, but also the study of issues which surround the practice of law and its implementation across jurisdictions.

Arms Trade Treaty: Domestic and international implications

Event Information
Monday, June 17, 2013
ASIL Headquarters, Tillar House
Washington, DC

TIME: 12:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. (Live webstreaming at www.asil.org/live. Lunch will be provided 12:00 - 12:30 p.m.) The American Society of International Law will host U.S. Department of State Assistant Secretary for International Security and Nonproliferation Thomas Countryman and other distinguished panelists for an educational event discussing domestic and international implications of the Arms Trade Treaty. On April 2, 2013 the United Nations General Assembly passed the 28-article Arms Trade Treaty (ATT), aiming to establish the highest possible common international standards for regulating conventional arms trade. The Treaty is currently open for signature at the United Nations Headquarters. While it is unknown if and/or when the treaty will enter into force and if and/or when the United States will sign it, the treaty does impose genuine legal obligations on its parties regarding the proliferation of weapons not covered by other specialized treaties and has the potential to contribute significantly to international security.
