German Society for International Law

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The German Society for International Law (DGIR) was founded in 1917 as the German Society for International Law. It is the specialist society for international law and private international law in German-speaking countries. It should not be confused with the German national group of the International Law Association , which operates as the German Association for International Law .

history

In 1917, in view of the looming defeat of Germany in World War I , the German Society for International Law was founded with the aim of helping to build a new order; Theodor Niemeyer played a central role in the founding. With the beginning of the Nazi era , the company ceased operations in 1934. In 1949 it was re-established under the leadership of Rudolf Laun . In 2011, on the initiative of Dagmar Coester-Waltjen, it was named German Society for International Law in order to emphasize the commonality between international law and international private law, which is also covered.

Tasks and activities

Lectures on current fundamental issues of international law are held and discussed at the Society's meetings, which take place every two years. Lectures and discussions are published in the reports of the German Society for International Law (until 2012: Reports of the German Society for International Law). A special session in 2016 dealt with the teaching of international law. Since 1996, the society has been holding joint research colloquia every two years with its French sister company, the Société française pour le droit international, most recently in Regensburg in 2016 on the subject of religion and international law and in Strasbourg in 2018 on the Treaty of Versailles .
