Organizatorzy proponują następujące tematy wystąpień:

• How have international institutions responded to previous challenges of the very idea of the rule of law in international affairs?
• How has the extent to which a state respects the rule of law in the domestic sphere influenced their behavior within the international community?
• Has the meaning of the term ‘rule of law’ changed over time, and is it a universal concept? Does it have different connotations in the natural law or the positivist tradition? How have regional attempts to establish the rule of law influenced the international level?
• When did we begin to have the ambition to regulate and enforce matters at a global level? How has the creation and enforcement of rules changed since the UN system was set up after the Second World War?
• What was the impact of the rise of arbitration and international courts? Were they the consequence of a growing belief in the rule of law or drivers of this development?
• How effective has the rule of law been in defining and protecting global commons (e.g. the success or failure of legal efforts to protect the environment)?
• Has the ‘rule of law’ evolved differently in different policy areas such trade and investment law, communications or the laws of war?
