Polish Scholar to Discuss Administrative Courts in the Polish Legal System on March 8
On Thursday, March 8, the UNC School of Government will host a discussion on “Administrative Courts in the Polish Legal System” with Agata Hauser, PhD, a lecturer at the Constitutional Law Department of the Adam Mickiewicz University. Hauser’s research focuses on judicial protection of individuals by the Court of Justice of the European Union (EU) and the European Court of Human Rights as well as interactions between the EU and the Council of Europe and application of the EU law by national courts of member states.
“This is a special opportunity to hear directly from a teacher and scholar in a country that has undergone and continues to see dramatic constitutional and institutional change,” said School of Government faculty member Charles Szypszak. “Hauser is among the brightest in Poland who daily consider fundamental issues that we often take for granted here in the United States.”
Hauser is visiting the University of North Carolina and participating in a series of events with support from UNC’s Center for Slavic, Eurasian and East European Studies. She will be speaking on Judiciary Reforms in Poland as a Threat to the Principle of the Rule of Law, 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, March 6 at the FedEx Global Education Center.
