Introduction
We are pleased to announce that the 20th Asian Law Institute (ASLI) Annual Conference will be hosted by the National University of Singapore Faculty of Law (NUS Law) on Wednesday 31st May and Thursday 1st June 2023 in Singapore. We look forward to welcoming you and value your contribution to the ongoing success of this annual conference.
The 20th ASLI Conference 2023
The purpose of the annual conference is to bring together scholars of Asian law from within and outside Asia to interact, share ideas and build collegial networks which may facilitate dialogue and research collaborations. We hope that this research forum will be widely used to bring together collaborators in various projects. Presenters and non-presenters are encouraged to connect with fellow academics before the conference and to start thinking about potential research projects.
The conference format remains broadly the same as in previous years: there will be numerous parallel sessions over two days. The broad theme of the 2023 conference is Inclusivity and Diversity in the Context of Asian Law.
Under the conference theme, we will, as far as possible, group papers within broad subject areas, and will form panels on this basis. The broad subject areas will include: Banking and Finance; Bankruptcy; Children and Law; Competition Law; Constitutional and Administrative Law; Corporate Law & Governance; Criminal Law; Environmental Law; Family Law; Human Rights; Information Technology Law; International Arbitration and Dispute Resolution; International Business Law; International Investment Law; International Law; Intellectual Property Rights; International Regulation of Trade; Labor & Employment Law; Law & Economic Development; Law and Religion; Law & Society; Legal Education; Legal Pluralism; Maritime Law; Migration; Miscellaneous; Private International Law; Private Law; Tax Law; and Women & Law.
However, we welcome papers on all topics, and the ‘Miscellaneous’ category means that it is not necessary for a paper to fit within any specific subject area to be accepted.
Deadline for submission of abstracts is on Monday 31 October 2022.
Please visit our conference web site and call for papers at

A detailed and finalized programme (speaker panels, etc.) will be made available to all registered participants nearer the date of the conference.
We would very much appreciate your help in bringing this conference to the attention of your faculty/law school colleagues, as well as anyone whom you think might be interested in attending, whether as a paper presenter or otherwise.
