1 presents the 2013 Symposium The Nation State and Its Banks: Sovereign Debt and International Regulation with Professor Jay Westbrook. Executive Summary The Symposium brings together leading academics, officials and practitioners for two days of discussion on the international implications of the evolving regulation of financial institutions. The major topic headings are Sovereign Debt, International Regulation of Financial Companies, Derivatives, and the Inter-relationship among those three challenging topics. While four panels will be traditionally academic, we introduce several Roundtables, which will give practicing attorneys a chance to discuss the practicality, problems, and benefits of implementing ideas from the panels in the real world. We already have confirmations from Sean Hagan, General Counsel of the IMF, Henry Hu, and Dr. Christoph Paulus, former dean of the law faculty at Humboldt and the leading German legal expert on the sovereign debt crisis in Europe with more great speakers to be announced.

Past Symposia This Symposium continues a long tradition outstanding symposia, bringing together some of the best international law scholars from around the world. Examples of previous symposia include: 2012 Symposium, The Euro Crisis First Greece then Ireland, Italy, Spain and Portugal. The European common currency has come under pressure from large national debts and the effects of the global financial crisis, ultimately requiring a rescue package close to a trillion Euros. The Euro Crisis has profound implications for law and policy in the European Union and raises numerous questions of fundamental importance. Should the Treaty on the European Union be amended to provide a clearer basis for financial rescue measures, and if so, how should such amendments be designed? Should the European Union be able to interfere in the economic and fiscal policy of individual member states if such interference is

6 necessary to preserve the stability of the Euro? Does the Euro Crisis call for a redefinition on the role of the European Central Bank? TILJ in cooperation with the Center for European Studies at the University of Texas will attempt to answer some of these pressing questions with its Symposium on the Euro Crisis. The Symposium will feature a number of legal and economic scholars and will focus on both the legal and practical implications the current Euro Crisis has on the European Union and the world Symposium, Air and Missile Warfare Manual This Symposium focuses on the new Manual on International Law Applicable to Air and Missile Warfare, produced by the Program on Humanitarian Policy and Conflict Research at Harvard University. Should nongovernmental entities be constructing treatises representing international law? To what extent can such treatises be relied upon? What methodology is appropriate, and is it possible to ascertain enforceable customary law? The conference brought together a group of interdisciplinary thinkers to discuss the appropriateness of such actions and analyze the Air and Missile Warfare, in particular Symposium, International Insolvency: The Priority Dilemma The financial crisis accelerated the filing of multinational insolvencies from frequent to commonplace, dragging with them a host of unresolved difficulties of cooperation, fairness, and efficiency. Perhaps the greatest difficulty is the existence of widely different treatment of creditors from one country to the next, a problem often discussed under the heading of priority or preference. Symposium explores these difficulties over two days in four panels. The
