Differentiating "cooperation" and "solidarity" under international law: much ado about nothing?

Confronted with current economic, social and environmental crises, States are renewing their collective commitment to act in favour of multilateral solutions to global problems. This action, over the last decade, however, seems to be based on the concept of solidarity rather than on the more traditionally used duty to cooperate. Faced with an emerging and proliferating practice relating to the concept of solidarity in international relations, this seminar, which presents research in progress, examines whether the solidarity concept has acquired a certain autonomy in international law and can now be distinguished from that of cooperation, following the example of European law. More specifically, this seminar will address to which purpose and for whom such a differentiation would be useful.

This event is open only to members of Oxford University. To register for it please complete the form below using your SSO credentials. Registration will close at 10am on the morning of the seminar after which a Teams link will be sent to those who have registered to attend online.
