Today’s seminar offered its participants a very interesting cross-section of international regionalism, starting from the African and Asian areas, thanks to the remarks of Prof. Piero Pennetta, to the Latin American area through the lens of the Romanist Prof. Orisel Hernández Aguilar and of the international law lawyer, Achille Bianchi, in relation with the European Union.

Prof. Massimo Panebianco’s conclusions then admirably bridged the different areas of the world for a systemic reading of the intricate situation of current international relations between States.

On Monday 27 November 2023, starting at 10:30 A.M., in ‘A. Catania’ Hall of the UNISA Department of Legal Sciences, the Seminar ‘The European Union and Regional Areas in the Making: Prospects and Critical Issues’ will take place.

As part of the course of International Organization, the Seminar is included in a cycle of scientific events that will unfold during late-November and early-December and that are meant to deepen the knowledge of the students of the course by stimulating their critical view on IO-related matters.

The work will be addressed by Francesco Fasolino (Director of the DSG UNISA Department) and introduced by Teresa Russo (Associate Professor of EU Law). In particular, the discussants of the day will be Piero Pennetta (Former Full Professor of International Law), Orisel Hernández Aguilar (Law Professor at the Universidad “Hermanos Saíz Montes de Oca” de Pinar del Río) and Achille Bianchi (Lawyer at the Salerno Bar). Additionally, Massimo Panebianco (Emeritus Professor of International Law) will draw some closing remarks.

Another great response from the audience!

We are more than happy with the outcome of last Tuesday’s seminar, jointly organized by the JM Chair EUVALWEB and the JM Modules EU-DRAW and DECDP.

Offering insights and critics on the relationship between judicial cooperation, IAs and cybersecurity with the human rights, as a sensitive topic, was not an easy task, but the distinguished speakers were able to deliver it in a compelling and intriguing way. For that, we thank them as much as the students who stepped up to ask their questions during the open debate!

Thank you again!

We are extremely pleased with the outcome of the Law Clinic last Friday, 17 November 2023, on the practical topic of EU Agencies.

In particular, the Clinic not only tried to frame these agencies, but also illustrated some of the main issues that have characterised them over the years.
