After the successful first edition in 2016, we have decided to continue

that our confirmed keynote speakers will be Carmen Bestué (Autonomous 
University of Barcelona, Spain), Jan Engberg (Aarhus University, 
Denmark), Eva Pons (University of Barcelona, Spain) and Lawrence Solan 
(Brooklyn Law School, United States).
