International Law and Democracy Revisited: The EJIL 30th Anniversary Symposium
EJIL was founded in 1989, coinciding with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the attendant excitement encapsulated by that well-known optimistic/hubristic End of History phraseology, with predictions of liberal democracy to become regnant in the world and a New International Legal Order to replace the old First World-Second World-Third World distinctions.
Thirty years later the state of democracy, whether liberal or social or any other variant, seems to be far from sanguine.
Here is but a partial list of the challenges to democracy in the contemporary world:
The advent of so-called ‘illiberal democracies’
The crisis and breakdown of trust within established democracies
The reality or otherwise of states with ‘formal democracy’ often reduced to little more than elections, more or less free
The accountability and rule of law concerns, famously termed GAL concerns, which transnational governance regimes raise as indispensable features of democracy
The persistent ‘democracy deficit’ or ‘political deficit’ of the European Union and similar Organizations
The emergence of the global ‘data economy’ with mega platforms calling into question basic assumptions about territory and jurisdiction and calling into question the ability of democratic regimes to reign in such platforms increasingly questioned
The impact of both financial markets and international monetary bodies on the internal margin of manoeuvre and democratic choices of economic management
Democracy and global inequality: The relationship between counter-democratic ideologies, legal reforms and political processes at the domestic and global levels and social and economic processes such as the shrinking middle class and the lasting ramifications of the 2008 economic crisis.
The list of challenges could go on quite a bit. The international legal order itself has come under stress and the interaction, descriptively and prescriptively, of international law with the question of ‘democracy’ has become complex, even messy.
We are issuing here a Call for Papers. International lawyers from practice and academia as well as scholars from related disciplines are invited to send an abstract of 350-500 words setting out the prospective papers they would like to submit for inclusion in the symposium dealing with any theme that comes within the overarching topic of International Law and Democracy. We will accept proposals for research papers of 10-12K words as well as shorter Think Pieces of 5-7K words.
The deadline for the Abstracts is 15 January 2019. Draft papers of those abstracts selected by a committee composed of members of the Editorial Boards of EJIL will be expected by 15 June. We are considering a workshop in Madrid in early July to discuss the drafts. Final version of papers will be expected by 15 September.
Abstracts are to be sent to EJIL’s Managing Editor at anny.bremner@eui.eu by 15 January 2019.
