Extract

The Fourth Annual Conference of the Canadian Council on International Law was held at the University of Ottawa on October 24 and 25, 1975. The theme of the Conference was the international law of development and three sessions dealt with the evolving law of development, development aid and trade, and development and foreign assistance.

The first session, chaired by Mr. Erik Wang, of the Department of External Affairs, began with a paper presented by Dr. Oscar Schachter, formerly Deputy Director of UNITAR and currently Professor of International Law at Columbia University. Dr. Schachter appropriately set the scene by responding to the question whether it is possible to speak of an international law of development.
