Solastalgia
Solastalgia: Conflict and the Fabric of Life was a transdisciplinary project, engaging academics and artists from the fields of law and arts (dance, visual arts, photography and painting). The project evolved over five years, utilising a variety of research activities and methods of investigation, with embodied experience at the heart of the research. As the research progressed, the pivot point became the investigation of the concept of solastalg…

Alan Sykes’ editorial comment, Economic “Necessity” in International Law, provides a multi-layered analysis of the defense of “necessity” in international investment disputes.

Such authorization constitutes a very positive development for the WTO dispute settlement system, for it enhances the transparency of the system at its highest stage. Indeed, the Appellate Body is becoming a leading actor in the formation of international law 1 owing to the fact…
