Global Administrative Law - Events
Viterbo Seminar Series
Beginning in 2005, a two-day seminar on Global Administrative Law has been held anually (usually in mid-June) in Viterbo, Italy, at the Political Science Faculty of La Tuscia University. A theme is specified for each year, and a call for papers is issued (and posted on this website) to invite scholars from around the world to submit paper proposals. For papers and summaries of discussions, follow the link to each year's seminar. These seminars, convened by Professors Stefano Battini and Giulio Vesperini, draw from research projects headed by Professor Sabino Cassese at the University of Rome "La Sapienza" and at the Institute for Research on Public Administration (IRPA), and regularly involve scholars from universities in Italy and other parts of Europe, NYU, and elsewhere.
The Viterbo IV Seminar will be held on June 13-14 2008, and will focus on the theme “GAL: From Fragmentation to Unity?”
