Sant’Anna School scholars working on interlegality paradigm and globalization interlegality under the scientific supervision of Gianluigi Palombella, Professor of Legal Theory and Applied Philosophy, will focus on the expansion of legal pluralism concept to discuss and understand how different legal orders coexist and interact among transnational regulatory actors and societies. The workshop will take place at the Giallombardo room in Rome Court of Appeal on February 20, at 3.00 pm.

Keynote speakers will include Marta Cartabia, President of the Constitutional Court of the Italian Republic;  Giuliano Amato, Judge of the Constitutional Court of the Italian Republic;  Antonello Tancredi, Professor of International Law at the Université Nice Sophia Antipolis; Giovanni Mammone, First President of the Court of Appeal of the Italian Republic; Enrico Scoditti, Advisory Board member of the Court of Appeal of the Italian Republic and Filippo Patroni Griffi, President of the Italian Council of State.

This workshop is part of the 2019 PRIN (research projects of relevant Italian national interest selected by the Ministry of Education, University and Research) project “The Challenge of Interlegality”, to explain the relations among legal regimes, the interweaving of jurisdictions and the future prospects of law in the intra- and supra- state settings. As the primary challenge for inter-legality remains the extent to which it aims to answer three questions: does inter-legality occur with some regularity? How does it affect traditional legal concepts such as 'jurisdiction' or 'legal order' or 'responsibility'? And, what are the implications of a transnational private law as a form of transnational governance that recognizes the multiplicity of norms generated by plural normative systems in our contemporary world society?

The findings of the PRIN initiative “The Challenge of Interlegality” were presented in the project monograph “The Challenge of Inter-Legality” (Cambridge, University Press, 2019) edited by Jan Klabbers, Professor of International Law at the University of di Helsinky and Gianluigi Palombella, Professor  of Legal Theory at Sant’Anna School Dirpolis (Law, Politics and Development) Institute.
