NYU School of Law’s Center for Transnational Litigation, Arbitration, and Commercial Law is glad to announce that, together with SciencesPo Law School and Universidad Austral Buenos Aires, it will host a conference on the myth and reality of party autonomy in international commercial arbitration. The in-person conference, to be held in Spanish, will take place in Buenos Aires, on June 7th, 2024, from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM local time.

The speakers will be Francisco A. Amallo, Paul Arrighi, Diego P. Fernandez Arroyo, Roque Caivano, Maria Ines Corra, Domenico Di Pietro, Sandra Gonzalez Vila, Mariana Lozza, Maria Blanca Noodt Taquela, Julio Cesar Rivera (h), Veronica Sandler, and Joe Tirado.

Professor Franco Ferrari, the Center’s Executive Director, will make some introductory remarks and give an overview of the issues to be addressed over the course of the conference, which will be divided into two sessions, dedicated to potential limits to party autonomy in choosing the law applicable to the merits and whether the parties really own the arbitral process, respectively.

The conference will be preceded by a presentation of two books co-authored by Professor Ferrari and Professor Friedrich Rosenfeld in Spanish, together with Professors Julio Cesar Rivera (h) and Juan Ignacio Stampalija, respectively. For more information, please click here: https://bit.ly/3xjZ4zT .
