Posthumus Conference 2025 website launched – keynote lecture by Professor Tamara Herzog (Harvard University)

We are happy to announce the launch of the Posthumus Conference 2025 website! On 27 and 28 May 2025, the Posthumus Conference 2025 will be held in Nijmegen at Radboud University, hosted by Dr Dries Lyna and Dr Joris van den Tol.

This year’s conference will be on the central theme ‘The People vs Structures’: this theme allows a reflection on how legal systems, institutions, and practices have influenced social and economic conditions, as well as how people have influenced these legal regimes.

The keynote lecture at the Posthumus Conference 2025 will be delivered by Professor Tamara Herzog, Monroe Gutman Professor of Latin American Affairs at Harvard University and Affiliate Professor of the Harvard Law School.

The conference website will be regularly updated, so keep an eye on that website!
