The Latin American
Network of International Economic Law (Red Latinoamericana De Derecho Economico
Internacional-Red LatDEI) and Universidad Externado de Colombia invite the
academic community, government officials or officials of official institutions,
private professionals, lawyers, economists, experts in international relations
or international trade to submit their proposals for articles, panels and
posters.
For the Red LatDEI it
is very important to open a space for debate in which to discuss the future of
the region and the contributions that can be made from both academia and
professional practice in the area of international economic law. Considering
the relevance that voices from the global south are gaining, it is important to
recognise from Latin America our positions on how to apply international
economic law, as well as the needs that this branch of law can satisfy.
Proposals may address
the following topics:
●
Challenges for Latin America in the face of
resurgent nationalist and protectionist policies
●
The effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on
international economic law in Latin America
●
The international rule of law and nationalist
policies in trade and investment;
●
Latin American integration: advantages and
obstacles
●
The impact and future of Trade Agreements
●
New investment agreements
●
Latin America's role in the WTO
●
Reform of the Investor-State Dispute
Settlement system
●
New challenges for international economic law
in Latin America with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
●
International economic law solutions to
address the climate crisis
●
Business and Human rights
Any other proposal
related to the central theme of the conference may be considered by the
committee.
The conference will be
conducted on the basis of individual panels and readings in plenary format. The
plenary sessions will have a moderator and commentators. Plenary session
speakers will be convened by the LATDEI Network Committee.
Applications should be
sent through the following form https://forms.gle/xD6i8YC6BjypihBG6
Panel and poster
presenters will be selected on the basis of a double peer review, according to
the following terms:
Individual papers or posters: an abstract of up to
500 words with the topic to be discussed in the article, and include name,
affiliation and short biography. It should be indicated whether the work has
already been published, is a working paper, or is unpublished. In addition, it
should be indicated whether the author intends to publish his/her final paper
in a thematic book or special issue of an online journal.
Proposals for Panels: The proposal must
have:
(a) at least three
members;
(b) a title and an
abstract with a maximum of 500 words;
(c) presenters and
their information (affiliation, titles and abstracts of individual
presentations), 300 words each.
Deadlines for
proposals and paper submission are the same as for individual applications.
Preferably, the panel should have a balanced regional and gender
representation, as well as a diversity of opinions. The organiser of each panel
is responsible for ensuring the participation of other members.
Individual applications from non-academic
professionals: in order to promote dialogue between academia and the private
and governmental sectors, a limited number of submissions will be allowed
without the obligation to submit a paper. This option is only available to
professionals who are not linked to the academic sector. The requirements for
this type of proposal are:
(a) submission of an
abstract of no more than 300 words on the topic to be addressed in the
presentation;
(b) the subject of the
presentation must be directly related to the candidate's professional
experience - the proposal must include a brief description of the professional
experience and the link to the subject of the presentation, in addition to the
candidate's CV;
(c) a commitment to submit a presentation in
PowerPoint format to be used during the conference.
Funding: The organization of
the event does not cover the travel and accommodation expenses of the
panelists. The registration fee represents a minimum fee and will be published
with the general information of the meeting.
Publication: For publication
purposes, the article must be between 20 and 30 pages in length. In addition,
an editorial committee will select works that meet the required standards of
quality and relevance based on the conference theme. In addition to the
editorial committee, academics will also evaluate the papers.
