Devastating wildfires and floods are causing unprecedented harm to people and nature. Ice shelfs are melting and the Living Planet Report 2022 shows that wildlife populations have dropped with a devastating 69% on average in less than lifetime. Societies are becoming more unequal and populism is on the rise. Yet, for the most part, businesses, financial markets and policy-makers continue with a business-as-usual approach to all economic, social and commercial activities. This poses significant risks to our collective ways of life.

The workshop reflects on the meaning of solidarity in the context of free movement law. Maria Haag explores the shift in the Court of Justice’s jurisprudence in welfare solidarity from a social integration approach to an allegedly ‘neutral’ reliance on secondary rules. Niamh Nic Shuibhne asks whether precise legal obligations can be transposed to the free movement of persons from the more abstract principle of solidarity in EU law. Turning to free movement of goods, Alessandro Petti discusses the relationship between autonomy and solidarity on the basis of the EU Covid-19 vaccines purchase and export mechanism.

The workshop will discuss the development of granting an increasing number of administrative authorities independence, examine the place which these bodies occupy in the constitutional arrangement, and their legitimacy. It is arranged by BI Norwegian Business School, Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences and University of Oslo. It is a part of the research project Central Banks’ expanded role in financial markets, which is funded by Finansmarkedsfondet and managed by the Norwegian Research Council.

Peter Davis, LLM at the Department of Private Law will be defending the thesis Encryption’s ‘Going Dark’ Debate: The Rule of Law confronts the Laws of Mathematics for the degree of PhD.
