The QRCPCL warmly invites you to the final lecture of the 2010 edition of its Summer Seminar. The lecture, titled "The Gift", will be given by James McGill Professor of Law and QRCPCL director, Lionel Smith.
Abstract: This presentation examines some aspects of the gift from a range of perspectives. It seeks to unearth some insights about the social practice of gift giving, but also some insights about law and comparative law from an examination of how different legal systems handle the many social dimensions of the gift.
