> 
> LINKING STATE RESPONSIBILITY AND INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL LAW
> 
> International law has increasingly moved towards individualization, 
> particularly when it comes to issues of responsibility. Focus has 
> changed from traditional state action to individual action as 
> exemplified by the flourishing of international criminal law. Having 
> multiple sets of responsibility in international law necessarily 
> raises questions: What is the relationship between the traditional law 
> of state responsibility and international criminal law? Conceptually 
> they stand separate but are there things linking them together? Are 
> they competing branches of international law or do they complement 
> each other?
> 
> The purpose of the 22nd Helsinki Summer Seminar is to provide a 
> platform for discussions on recent developments regarding issues of 
> responsibility and their interconnections.
