The recent European Society of International Law Research Forum – only the Society's second conference following the inaugural event in Florence last year – took place from the 24-26th May 2005 in stunning surroundings on the shores of Lac Lemain in the buildings of the Graduate Institute of International Studies in Geneva. Quite apart from the obvious importance of a high-level international conference under the auspices of one of the most important international law societies in the world, and the attendant quality of the speakers and other participants, the event was of real significance in that it allowed for an insight into how the new Society itself is developing, and the manner in which it will go about the task of fulfilling the objectives that it has set itself.
