Abstract

The inaugural John Dugard Lecture in International Law, University of Johannesburg, 25 October 2018. In 2015, a steering committee made up of myself and other members of the South African Branch of the International Law Association (ILA) commenced our planning for hosting the 77th Biennial Conference of the ILA, which was to take place in Sandton in August 2016, two years after our hosting bid was approved by the Executive Committee of the ILA in London.

Abstract

It is a great honour and privilege to be invited to give the inaugural John Dugard Lecture in International Law, in the presence of John Dugard himself. For me, this occasion is an intermingling of the professional and the personal, so much so that I hardly know where the one stops and the other begins.

It is an honour to have been invited to close this evening’s inaugural lecture: and what an honour indeed, to have Professor Crawford deliver the inaugural John Dugard Lecture. I can think of few people better suited to give the lecture than Professor Crawford.

Abstract

The shifting and complex nature of contemporary international relations increasingly requires clear and coherent international law norms for the promotion of peace, security, promotion of human rights and socio-economic development. One of the challenges faced by states in working towards achieving the rule of law at the international level, is the proliferation of processes and fora in which international law norms are developed.
