Delighted to pass along the CfP for the 22nd Asian Law Institute (ASLI) Annual Conference to be held May 28-29, 2025, Shanghai, China. It is hosted this year by the East China University of Political Science and Law. The 2025 theme is "Discourses of Rule of Law: Asia's Narrative."  Here is the posted Conference Announcement of Professor WU Qiaofang, Director of International Exchange Center & Dean of International School, East China University of Political Science and Law:

Dear Distinguished Scholars,

It is with great delight that I extend a heartfelt invitation to the 22nd Annual Conference of the Asian Law Institute (ASLI), scheduled to be held at the East China University of Political Science and Law in Shanghai from May 28th to 29th, 2025.

The chosen theme for the upcoming conference is “Discourses of Rule of Law: Asia’s Narratives”. We are dedicated to upholding ASLI’s longstanding legacy by convening scholars, practitioners, and experts from around the world to engage in meaningful dialogues that aim to advance the rule of law, as well as champion justice and equity within our region and beyond.

The rule of law stands as a cornerstone in the edifice of the modern world, widely acknowledged as a foundational element for global economic prosperity, the enhancement of political systems, and the safeguarding of human rights. As Asia gains more prominence, it presents a distinctive interpretation of the rule of law, one that veers away from Western paradigms. This interpretation places a heightened emphasis on social harmony, the prioritization of collective interests, and the preservation of family values.

Asian countries are championing the cause for legal systems that are not only efficacious but also deeply resonant with their unique cultural narratives. By wholeheartedly embracing the rich tapestry of perspectives that Asia’s narratives on the rule of law offer, we have the opportunity to carve out pathways toward a legal landscape that is both inclusive and cohesive. Such a landscape promises to reflect and honor the values and aspirations of diverse communities throughout Asia, paving the way for a future where the rule of law not only governs but also galvanizes the spirit of unity and mutual respect.

Shanghai is an ideal city to host the upcoming ASLI event. Recognized as a melting pot of cultures and ideas, Shanghai radiates a welcoming charm that resonates with individuals from all corners of the globe. With its world-class infrastructure, diverse culinary offerings, and profound cultural heritage, Shanghai offers a unique setting for exploring the diverse legal traditions and narrative styles that shape our dynamic region.

On behalf of East China University of Political Science and Law and the entire ASLI community, I am filled with eager anticipation at the prospect of welcoming you to the 22nd ASLI Conference. Let’s unite in Shanghai to exchange innovative ideas, forge new friendships, and mutually inspire each other in this dynamic metropolis. May our gathering be a beacon of inspiration, collaboration, and the beginning of enduring connections.
