June 12 - 13 , 2008
Event will held at the George Washington University Law School.
Co-sponsored by the Berkeley Center for Law & Technology (BCLT).
In June 2008, BCLT will co-host the the inaugural Berkeley Law-GW Privacy Law Scholars Conference at the George Washington University Law School in Washington, DC.
The Privacy Law Scholars Conference (PLSC) aims to assemble a wide array of privacy law scholars and practitioners from around the world to discuss current issues and foster greater connections between academia and practice. It will bring together privacy law scholars, privacy scholars from other disciplines (economics, philosophy, political science, computer science), and practitioners (industry, legal, advocacy, and government).
The conference will feature roundtable group discussion on academic issues (teaching and scholarship) as well as on practice issues (regulation and litigation). It will also feature a keynote address, as well as several paper workshops. The goal is to enhance ties within the privacy law community and to facilitate dialogue between the different parts of that community (academy, government, industry, and public interest). For paper workshops, conference attendees will be expected to read the papers in advance, and papers will be introduced with only a few brief remarks so as to maximize time for rigorous discussion of the paper.
