Summary
In June 2006, the Max Planck Institute for Comparative and International Private Law has held the First Max Planck Postdoc Conference on European Private Law where 18 young scholars from various European countries presented and discussed the propositions of their respective Ph.D. thesis. The subjects ranged from the law of obligations to private international law and company law to civil procedure, labor and environmental law.
This conference has carried forward the successful series of the “Habilitandenkolloquien”, organized by the institute since 1999 and expanded the group of participants to young scholars from across Europe.
