The Sixth Hague Joint Conference on Contemporary Issues of International Law was held in the grandeur of the beautiful Kurhaus Hotel from 3 to 5 July 2003. The Hague Joint Conference is organized by the American Society of International Law, the Netherlands International Law Association and the T.M.C. Asser Institute and takes place every two years. This year, the theme of the Conference was ‘From Government to Governance? The Growing Impact of Non-State Actors on the International and European Legal System’. This subject was further explored in three parallel seminars entitled ‘International Organizations and Good Governance’, ‘Multinational Business and Corporate Governance’ and ‘Responding to International Terrorism’. This report presents some impressions of the Conference to the readers of this journal.
