I'm happy to share that my contribution, ‘Consumer Protection’, was published in the Max Planck Encyclopedia of Comparative Constitutional Law by Oxford University Press. 🌍⚖️♻️

[Gregor Novak @GregorNovak]

I thoroughly enjoyed delving into this lively area of comparative constitutional law scholarship. I’m grateful to the editors and anonymous reviewers for their helpful comments.

[Gregor Novak @GregorNovak]

It is excellent to see that our initial article continues to prompt engagement by other legal scholars.

I’m grateful to @lawfareblog for publishing “The Black Sea Grain Initiative and the Law of Treaties: A Response”.

[Lawfare @lawfare]

.@GregorNovak discusses the role of treaties for the Black Sea Grain Initiative, writing that the legal dimensions of the BGSI offer insights into the actual and potential roles of international law at times of crisis. https://t.co/CIxEEFM262

[Gregor Novak @GregorNovak]

It’s my response to an insightful article by @MySoldatenko that examined the legal nature of the Black Sea Grain Initiative and critically engaged with a Just Security article @AustHelmut and I co-authored last year.
