Treanor Georgetown Law “The Center for Transnational Legal Studies has inspired admiration throughout legal academia. Scholars and students from over 20 countries explore cross-border issues in classes where there is no ‘majority’ nationality, and each perspective is informed by all others. Gaining knowledge, skills, and a global network of colleagues, CTLS students are uniquely prepared for legal practice in the 21st century.” 1 Professor Ugo Pagallo University of Torino, Spring 2009 “My CTLS experience has been wonderful and unique: an extraordinary network of eleven law schools from four different continents giving for the first time the opportunity to consistently focus on the new transnational challenges of today’s legal systems for a whole term. From the introductory ‘global practice exercise’ to the weekly colloquia, students and faculty integrate their courses with a sound multi disciplinary approach. A series of social events renovates the original meaning of the word ‘university’ – which is in fact ‘com- munity’ – making the ‘Center’ a benchmark for contemporary legal studies in our globalised world.” 2 A Global Partnership The London-based Center for Transnational Legal Studies, launched in 2008 and administered by Georgetown University Law Center staff, is a global partnership currently encompassing 24 schools from almost as many countries around the world.

We strive to provide an international knowledge-sharing platform for leading practitioners in business, law, and politics on critical issues, with a particular emphasis in the areas of: • International law, and • Global governance. We also use our technical expertise to support other Germany-based non-profit institutions carry out activities in the United States. The shifting political, economic, and legal global landscape poses daunting challenges for policymakers and business leaders around the world. Our work is grounded in the firm belief that finding solutions to these challenges requires open and interdisciplinary exchange among stakeholders who can share knowledge, build networks, and cooperate to find common solutions. 3 | www.buceriusUSA.org ZEIT–STIFTUNG EBELIN UND GERD BUCERIUS Gerd Bucerius (1906–1995) was a trailblazer of German post-World War II journalism with a passion for democratic engagement. As a young attorney he defended victims of national- socialist persecution, and was denied a career in the civil service because he was married to a Jewish woman. After World War II, Bucerius served in the first German Federal Parliament as a representative of the conservative Christian Democratic Union party (CDU), and remained a member until 1962.
