INTERSECTIONS OF PRIVATE LAW
A biennial colloquium at the University of Sydney Law
School
5-6 April 2024
CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Sydney Law School is pleased to announce the third
Intersections of Private Law Colloquium to be held
in-person on 5-6 April 2024. We are delighted to
invite you to submit an abstract for the Colloquium.
Last held in 2019 before the pandemic, Intersections
of Private Law is a colloquium series that aims to
explore the boundaries, overlaps and complementary
operation of fields of private law with each other
and externally. There is much to be explored and
discussed in how different fields of private law interact
with each other for example, contract law with tort
or equitable principles, tort with unjust enrichment
and with other fields of law, such as criminal law,
corporate law and public law. Even within one field of
private law, there are overlaps and distinctions to be
drawn or eradicated for example, in tort law,
trespass and nuisance, intentional wrongdoing and
negligence. Interdisciplinary perspectives provide
another source of intersection. The Intersections of
Private Law colloquium series provides an
opportunity for scholars from Australia and overseas
to explore these and other overlaps and distinctions
within and at the boundaries of private law.
The following invited speakers will participate in the
Colloquium:
Matthew Dyson,
Professor of Civil and Criminal Law, Faculty of Law, University of Oxford;
Jodi Gardner, Brian
Coote Chair in Private Law, Faculty of Law, University of Auckland;
Donal Nolan,
Professor of Private Law, Faculty of Law, University of Oxford.
Abstracts should be submitted by email to intersectionsofprivatelaw@gmail.com. Abstracts should
be no
more than 500 words long. The due date for abstracts
is 5 February 2024, although earlier submissions
are welcome. Submissions from early career researchers
and full drafts are warmly encouraged.
We will send notification of acceptance no later than
19 February 2024. We are happy to distribute any
full drafts that we receive two weeks before the
Colloquium.
There will be a small registration fee for confirmed
participants to cover catering costs. There is a
separate modest price for the colloquium dinner, which
will be held on 5 April 2024.
Yours sincerely
Organisers of the third Intersections
of Private Law Colloquium
