About the speaker
Dr Florian Grisel is a Research Fellow (Charg茅 de recherche) at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and a Senior Lecturer in Transnational Law at King's College London.
His doctoral dissertation (University Paris 1 Panth茅on-Sorbonne) was awarded the 2011 Varenne Prize in General Theory and Philosophy of Law. In his doctoral dissertation (International arbitration or law against legal order), Dr. Grisel defended the view that international arbitration creates a body of international business law that is autonomous from any distinct 鈥渓egal order鈥�. His thesis goes against a representation that is prevalent in civil law countries according to which law only exists within a defined 鈥渓egal order鈥� (whether domestic or international).
Dr Florian Grisel is a graduate of Sciences Po Paris, Universit茅 Paris 1 Panth茅on-Sorbonne, Columbia University (M.P.A.) and Yale Law School (LL.M.). Prior to joining the CNRS and King's College London, Dr. Grisel practiced law as an attorney at leading arbitration firms based in Geneva and Paris.
