7 June 2022
recently attended an award ceremony at the International Academy of Comparative Law in Paris for the conferral of recognition on five great comparatists. Each award winner was introduced by a ‘Laudatio’. Sue was invited to give the Laudatio for Emerita Professor Esin Örücü, Glasgow University.
The International Academy of Comparative Law was founded at The Hague on 13 September 1924 coinciding with the prodigious movement towards a renaissance of law which followed World War. The International Academy of Comparative Law is a body of scholars that primarily aims, according to article 2 of its Statutes, at “the comparative study of legal systems”, and it has currently more than seven hundred. The majority of members from both categories are academics but current members also include a number of judges of courts of supreme and international jurisdiction.
Every four years the Academy holds an International Congress of Comparative Law. This year’s Congress was held in Asuncion.
