Notes
That ‘lawyers alone’ should not be read as meaning ‘no lawyers’ was amply demonstrated by the way the panels were enriched by the interdisciplinary dialogue opened up by the two legal scholars who kindly agreed to act as discussants – Larry Alexander, for panel 1, and Oliver Gerstenberg, for panel 2. They defended respectively the integrity of constitutional law in general and European law in particular. I am pleased to be able to record the gratitude of all the panellists to their efforts.
