ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2027: LAW, ECONOMICS, TRADE AND JUSTICE
ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2027: LAW, ECONOMICS, TRADE AND JUSTICE 5–6 February 2027 Centre for Development Policy and Practice and Economic Policy Center, Mahindra University About the Organisers The Centre for Law, Economics and Society (CLES) is a research initiative of the Centre for Development Policy and Practice (CDPP). It researches on legal institutions and governance through a law and economics perspective, with a particular focus on access to justice, legal processes and institutional effectiveness. The initiative examines how legal systems, institutions and regulatory frameworks shape socio-economic outcomes, including market performance, distribution and access to justice. This conference is jointly organised by the Centre for Development Policy and Practice and the Economic Policy Center of Mahindra University, bringing together academic research, policy engagement and institutional collaboration to examine the intersections of law, economics, trade and justice. Background and Rationale Legal systems play a foundational role in shaping democratic governance, economic activity and international trade relations. Effective legal institutions enable contract enforcement, reduce transaction costs, foster trust in markets and support cross-border economic engagement while ensuring rights, equity and accountability. Structural challenges, including judicial delays, uneven institutional capacity, regulatory complexity and barriers to legal representation, continue to limit timely and equitable access to justice in many jurisdictions. These challenges affect not only individuals and vulnerable communities but also broader economic outcomes such as investment, labour market performance, regulatory efficiency and trade competitiveness. Legal and regulatory frameworks influence market behaviour through competition policy, labour regulation, investment protection and trade governance. Contemporary developments, including tariff disputes, trade wars, supply chain disruptions and climate-related trade measures, have intensified the need to understand the relationship between law, trade and economic governance. As countries increasingly negotiate bilateral and multilateral trade agreements, questions surrounding dispute settlement mechanisms, intellectual property rights, trade remedies and environmental commitments have become central to economic policymaking. International trade law and domestic legal institutions together shape competitiveness, market access, investment flows and sustainable development outcomes. Technological innovations such as digital courts, artificial intelligence and digital governance systems are also reshaping legal and economic institutions. While technology can improve efficiency and accessibility, its benefits depend upon broader institutional conditions and may reproduce existing inequalities if issues of access and inclusion are not adequately addressed. This conference seeks to examine legal systems as institutions that simultaneously shape markets, governance, trade and access to justice, bringing together perspectives from law, economics, trade and public policy. Conference Focus The conference will bring together scholars, practitioners, policy-makers, trade experts and early-career researchers to examine: How legal systems shape economic and trade outcomes.

Centre for WTO Studies, CRIT, Indian Institute of Foreign Trade
The Centre for WTO Studies was set up in the year 1999 to be a permanent repository of WTO negotiations-related knowledge and documentation. It was also envisaged that the Centre would evolve into a research unit with interest in trade in general and WTO in particular to finally develop into an independent think tank in the area. The Centre was later situated in the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade in November 2002. Over the years, the Centre has conducted a robust research programme with a series of papers in all spheres of interest at the WTO. It is currently engaging itself in an exercise to back its research with an equally robust publication programme. The Centre has also created a specialised e-repository of important WTO documents, especially related to India, in its Trade Resource Centre. It has been regularly called upon by the Government of India to undertake research and provide independent analytical inputs to help it develop positions in its various trade negotiations, both at the WTO and other forums such as Free and Preferential Trade Agreements and Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreements. Additionally, the Centre has been actively interfacing with industry and Government units as well as other stakeholders through its Outreach and Capacity Building programmes by organizing seminars, workshops, subject specific meetings etc. The Centre thus also acts as a platform for consensus building between stakeholders and policy makers.
