You are subscribed to Law Library: News & Events from the Library of Congress. Join foreign law specialist Elin Hofverberg on Thursday, October 29, at 2:00 p.m. EDT for a Foreign and Comparative Law Webinar. This series of classes is designed to shed light on some of the foreign and comparative law issues currently being researched by the foreign law and international law experts at the Law Library of Congress. The Nordic countries hold significant deposits of rare earth minerals. In this session, Elin will discuss how mineral excavation is regulated in the Nordics and how it relates to local self-determination. The webinar will compare legislation and regulatory approaches across the region and highlight relevant court decisions, including those on the right of the local population and indigenous people to be consulted on or veto the establishment and expansion of mines.
