Join us on 12 December 2024 for the first exciting webinar on “Human Rights in the Context of Contemporary International Law and Transdisciplinarity: A Book Discussion” with Prof. Cristina Elena Popa Tache.

Due to diverse social, political, and economic changes in the legal theory of international law, Prof. Cristina Elena Popa Tache highlights the importance of using inter- and multi-methods of analysis and transdisciplinary, thus fighting against the return to patterns of cognitive standardization and highlights the importance of preparing for this new era.
