Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has caused tremendous human suffering, dislocation, and economic devastation. It is no exaggeration to say the invasion has created the largest humanitarian crisis in Europe since World War II. While the invasion is still ongoing and its outcome is far from certain, it has already created numerous political and legal questions that demand reflection. What, if anything, can the law do to stop the conflict, provide just redress to the victims, and prevent future invasions like this in the future? Does the invasion undermine our belief in the international order and institutions called upon to maintain it? What could we learn at this point about the challenges posed by the invasion, and is reform of global security infrastructure possible, or even needed?
Join the Ukrainian Catholic University and the University of Notre Dame for a set of panel discussions on the legal challenges posed by the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. These discussions are intended to bring together legal scholars from within Ukraine and from abroad in an attempt to map such challenges and articulate the possible pathways to their resolution.
