In conjunction with the 2011 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Comparative Law, the McGeorge School of Law, University of the Pacific and the McGeorge Global Center for Business & Development conducted a workshop on identifying and achieving the objectives of the comparative law curriculum. This workshop created a unique opportunity for professors who teach comparative law to engage in a facilitated discussion probing the place of comparative law in the contemporary curriculum.
This workshop included sessions exploring the core comparative law course today, comparative law in subject and nation-specific contexts and comparative law in cultural and interdisciplinary context. In addition, there were panels dealing with hot topics in comparative law and presenting works-in-progress from young comparative law scholars.
