Our colleagues Lyn Tjon Soei Len and Josse Klijnsma are organising a private law (theory) conference on 31 January 2014, 8:30-18:00: "Private Law and the Basic Structure of Society". The conference participants will discuss private law theory through political philosophy and political philosophy through private law theory, seeking to broaden their understanding of the relationship between social justice and private law. Among the conference presenters there are many famous private law theoreticians and at least one of the speakers will discuss consumer law: Horst Eidenmüller will present a paper 'Against False Settlement: Designing Just and Efficient Consumer Rights Enforcement Systems'. The conference is free of charge and the registration has just opened.
