Centre for Comparative Constitutional Studies

CCCS: International and Comparative Perspectives on Constitutional Law

This year the Centre for Comparative Constitutional Studies will mark its 21^st Birthday with a major Conference on 27 November.

The conference is a public event which we expect to be attended by constitutional law scholars from Australia and the region as well as leading practitioners and judges.  Consistently with the Centre’s focus on Australian and comparative constitutional law, the Conference will provide a forum for reflection on major recent cases in Australian and foreign courts as well as the central themes of comparative constitutional law. 

The conference will be followed in the evening with a dinner.  I hope that the dinner will provide an occasion for a celebration of the Centre’s contributions to comparative constitutional studies and for some acknowledgment of the work of its founding Director, Professor Cheryl Saunders, and others associated with the Centre.

The program will feature a small number of leading scholars of constitutional law from Australia and overseas and one or two eminent judges.  The Chief Justice of Australia, the Hon. Robert French, will be a keynote speaker and the program will also feature Professor Sujit Choudhry of the University of Toronto.
