HASS Inaugural Lecture - Professor Mihail Danov

Overview

This lecture is about access to (cross-border) justice which is a key cross-cutting theme for Mihail’s current and planned research projects in the areas of private antitrust litigation and private international law. The issues concerning the administration of cross-border justice are important because the increasingly complex nature of the transnational economic activities strongly suggests that regulatory and/or judicial proceedings in relation to the same economic activities (or the same regulatory infringement/s) would often be issued in different jurisdictions. Mihail is determined to continue addressing these issues by producing ground-breaking doctrinal and/or empirical work. This talk is an opportunity for Mihail to briefly summarise some relevant research projects, on which he works at present, and on which he aims to continue working as part of a wider research team in the years to come.
