We know the philosophical question "if a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" But are you aware of another question on the existence of a professor?

"If a senior professor does not get a Festschrift do they even exist?"

Those legal scholars who specialise in comparative law know how does it feel to be the least favorite child. Law schools make sure that we feel that.

Given that the right usually wins elections in the UK, it seems likely that, whatever balance it takes, the UK will now be leaving the ECHR.

This is a shame.

Reaching 6K words feels like a challenge.

Sigh.

Comparative law has very weak institutional standing in my country. PhDers are interested and many scholars do it but there are no chairs and hardly any courses.
