IGLP: The Workshop is an intensive residential program designed for doctoral and post-doctoral scholars and junior faculty. This initiative aims to promote innovative ideas and alternative approaches to issues of global law, economic policy, and social justice in the aftermath of the economic crisis. Hosted by Harvard Law School, IGLP: The Workshop will bring together young scholars and faculty from around the world with leading faculty working on issues of global law and economic policy for serious research collaboration and debate. The full program for the 3rd annual Workshop will take place May 30-June 9, 2012 at Harvard Law School. In 2012, the full program for the IGLP Workshop will consist of:
- The Main Workshop, held June 3-9, 2012. Our Main Workshop will bring 50-100 doctoral, post-doctoral scholars, and junior faculty together with a core group of senior IGLP faculty from around the world for series of lectures and intensive interdisciplinary debate focused around 8 program themes. Afternoon writing workshops will also offer participants the opportunity to receive feedback on their own research from their peers, as well as from our faculty, in a small group setting.
- IGLP Pro-Seminars, held June 3-7, 2012. IGLP Pro-Seminars are designed for small groups of scholars engaged in collaboration aiming towards publication. IGLP Pro-Seminars typically consist of 10-15 scholars, half selected by invitation, and half by application who are all working on a common topic. In June the groups will meet in four two-hour private sessions. Pro-Seminar participants may attend the Streams and lectures which form the Main Workshop when their Seminar is not in session, but will not participate in the Writing Workshops or afternoon discussion sessions which are specifically designed for participants of the Main Workshop.
- IGLP Advanced Seminar, held May 30-June 2, 2012. This Advanced Seminar, which will focus on theme of political economy of the modern global order, is designed for IGLP Faculty, invited participants, and IGLP Docents. The faculty and docents who participate in the Advanced Workshop will also convene the Program Streams, Writing Workshop, and discussion groups during the Main Workshop. Some will also convene Pro-Seminars.
