[Conference] General principles in EU external relations law

The Centre for the Law of EU External Relations (CLEER) and the T.M.C Asser Institute are organising a conference on the topic of ‘General Principles in EU External Relations Law’ which will be held on 6 December 2024, at the T.M.C. Asser Institute in The Hague.

General principles play an important role in EU external relations law shaping the legal framework for EU external action as well as strengthening the judicial accountability of the EU as a global actor. At the same time, many questions regarding their specific function, scope and method of identification in EU external relations law remain unclear. The conference seeks to explore these questions bringing together a wide range of speakers.

The keynote address will be delivered by Prof. Samantha Besson (Collège de France, Fribourg University). Read the full programme here.
