Law Symposia

GISME also sponsors symposia on legal topics at the Georgetown Law Center. Like the ethics symposia, the purpose of the legal symposia is to stimulate thinking and generate new ideas on important legal subject relevant to the functioning of the market society. For the law symposia, the institute invites 12 top legal scholars with diverse ideological and intellectual perspectives to write articles on the topic, which the institute publishes in high-quality academic journals.

Past GISME law symposia have focused on topics including corporate criminality, the justifiability of public welfare offenses, and proportionality and punishment.
