IR TALKS 5 – A Crumbling International Legal Order? International Law in an Age of Crises

Date: 12 March 2025 17:20-18:00
Location: Corvinus University of Budapest, building C, C.202
Language: English
The international legal order that has shaped international relations since the end of the Second World War faces an unprecedented crisis. The Russian aggression against Ukraine, the conflagration of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the fantasy of the new American administration all suggest that significant actors blatantly disregard fundamental international legal norms.
The participants of the upcoming session of the IR TALKS series will discuss how these unfolding events potentially influence the international legal order, human rights protection included, and whether we can still hope for a return to a rules-based system.
Panelists:
- Tamás Vince Ádány (Department of Public International Law, Faculty of Law and Political Sciences, Pázmány Péter Catholic University),
- Beáta Paragi (Department of International Relations, Institute of Global Studies, Corvinus University of Budapest),
- Tamás Hoffmann (Department of International Relations, Institute of Global Studies, Corvinus University of Budapest)
Moderator: Eszter Kirs (Department of International Relations, Institute of Global Studies, Corvinus University of Budapest)
IR TALKS is a series of guest and roundtable talks organised by the Department of International Relations at Corvinus University to make sense of the world we live in at a time of turbulent international politics.
