The 15th Annual Conference of the European China Law Studies Association will be taking place this coming 24-26 September. It is offered in hybrid form this year and hosted by the Polish Research Center for Law and Economy of China, the University of Warsaw and its School of Law and Economy of China. Great thanks to the University of Warsaw's Piotr Grzebyk, dr hab., Vice Dean for Legal Research and International Cooperation who was instrumental in making this possible.
ECLS 2021 Conference takes the form of a hybrid event that combines a “live” in-person meeting with a “virtual” online component (ZOOM platform). The venue for in-person participants is the Collegium Iuridicum II building (Faculty of Law and Administration University of Warsaw) at Lipowa 4 street in Warsaw. ECLS Warsaw conference is financially supported by Centrum Analiz Legislacyjnych i Gospodarczych within Poland’s Ministry of Education and Science programme named “Doskonała Nauka”.
Many very interesting presentations on topics that will have a wide impact beyond China. My own presentation (Sunday 26 September 15:10-16:40 GMT+2 Warsaw) is drawn from my book, Hong Kong Between 'One Country' and 'Two Systems' (Little Sire Press, 2021) and considers the way that Hong Kong provided a site for the further development of a post-global theory of fractured sovereignty, one that distinguishes between ultimate territorial sovereignty (the conceptual integrity of the state) and operational sovereignty (the sources of authority for and the standards under which a sub-sovereign territory's administration may be managed, controlled and organized). The development of this idea represents an interesting innovation of constitutional internationalism and suggests ways in which globalization has made porous not just borders but systems for the administration of territories. Chinese responses to this challenge suggest an alternative and much more conventionally traditional approach to the issues posed by 'automous regions'.
The program follows below.
