New Visiting Researcher at iCourts - Sarah Lee
Sarah has been a PhD researcher at the CLTEJ (Center for Legal Theory and Empirical Jurisprudence) at KU Leuven since December 2023, under the supervision of Prof. Arthur Dyevre.
Her research focuses on the empirical analysis of "failed" international and regional courts, by observing the factors, mechanisms, and consequences of international court failure. More specifically, her research project aims to map the trajectories of aborted, dormant and dismantled courts, assess the effectiveness of legitimization strategies used by courts in uncertain environments, and create a typology of "failed" and "successful" courts. Her study will rely on a combination of quantitative analysis and case studies.
She holds a Bachelor's Degree from Sciences Po (2017-2019, cum laude) and a Master's degree in Law from l'École de Droit de Sciences Po (2020-2023). During her studies, she spent a year at the University of Cambridge (2019-2020, first class ranking) and a semester at Stanford University (2022, Honors Ranking in EU law course).
Sarah Lee will be a Visiting Researcher at iCourts from 1 December 2024 to 1 February 2025.
