Thursday Breakfast CPD talk series - Living Under Two Laws At Once (ADVERTISEMENT)

Fri Apr 29 2011

Members are invited to the Thursday Breakfast�CPD�talk series - Living Under Two Laws At Once - exploring Western culture's desire to challenge the status quo and have an open and diverse society. Western culture is dynamic and open-ended, embracing inherent dilemmas-�we admire total commitment�yet resist total control, and welcome yet�are vexed by alternatives. These dilemmas create�Western culture’s desire to improve and do things better, and foster within each individual a tension between conflicting duties, which are not capable of being integrated into a unified whole. In exploring these issues, Edwin Judge will examine both classical and biblical sources. His previous series�at CBF Legal was very popular with both lawyers and judges.

The�first talk on 5 May will explore Western culture’s esteeming of an individual’s exuberance and passion (for a good cause) even if in contravention of�the current legal order.

Emeritus Prof Edwin Judge of Macquarie University is one of the leading academic figures in Australia. Professor Judge will be speaking over four Thursday breakfasts (5, 12, 19 and 26 May)�at Silks Coffee Lounge (upper rear section), 170 Phillip St (next to Selborne Chambers). Breakfast from 7:20am, (at own cost), please order by 7.30am –talks commence 7:40am, conclude 8:20am. No need to pre-register.

Attendance at�each talk will attract 0.5 points under the Continuing Professional Development Programme
