David Caron Speaks on
U.S. Foreign Policy,
Rebuilding Iraq and Law
of the Sea
An international law expert who
worked both on claims arising from the 1979 detention of 52 U.S. nationals in
Tehran and on claims arising from the 1991 Gulf War will visit the law school
on October 14 and 15 as the Morse CenterÃs Distinguished Lecturer.
David CaronÃs free public lecture
on The United States and the Laws of Power will take place in the Knight
Law Center auditorium, 1515 Agate Street in Eugene, at 7:00 P.M. on Thursday,
October 14.
The U.S. has sought unilateral
actions in pursuit of national interests, which it perceives as best protected
by the preservation of our discretion, Caron says. In doing so, [the Bush
Administration] has alienated longtime allies and belittled the value of
cooperation.
Caron at UC BerkeleyÃs Boalt Hall
and directs the International Legal Studies program. He is well known as a
scholar, private attorney, and policymaker in the realm of international
dispute resolution. His writings cover a spectrum of topics from global
environmental change to international tribunals. He was the 25th American to
receive the prestigious Diploma of International Law at The Hague Academy, and
he is active in public service. CaronÃs latest book is Bringing New Law to
Ocean Waters, with co-editor Harry N. Scheiber.
