DESCRIPTION:Dean Robert Leckey cordially invites the legal community to the
  Inaugural Lecture of Professor Adelle Blackett as Canada Research Chair i
 n Transnational Labour Law and Development.\n\nRSVP by November 22 to alum
 nioffice.law [at] mcgill.ca\n\nAbstract\n\nIt is important to name the con
 temporary moment of discontent. It is equally essential not to normalize i
 t. This lecture engages with the way in which trade liberalization has bee
 n justified to the broad public\, and in particular to workers. A core arg
 ument is that there has been a detrimental mismatch between the labour pro
 visions in trade agreements\, and their justifications.\n\nTo redress the 
 mismatch\, it is necessary to rethink the methodological nationalism that 
 has framed labour law\, and the laden\, historical divisions the field con
 tinues to perpetuate in a troubled open economy. This lecture makes the ca
 se for close attention to be paid to emancipatory social justice in the re
 construction of transnational (labour) law.\n\nAbout the speaker\n\nAdelle
  Blackett\, Ad. E.\, is Professor of Law and the Canada Research Chair in 
 Transnational Labour Law and Development at 91ºÚÁÏÍø's Faculty of Law\, wher
 e she teaches and researches in the areas of labour and employment law\, t
