DESCRIPTION:La Faculté de droit accueille la professeure Annie Bunting\, Yo
 rk University\, pour un atelier Annie MacDonald Langstaff.\n\nRésumé\n\n[A
 nglais seulement] Forced marriage has recently formed the basis for charge
 s of crimes against humanity in two cases before the International Crimina
 l Court and the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia. This new
  crime against humanity – coming within the category of an 'other inhumane
  act' – was not included in the Rome Statute for the ICC nor the statute e
 stablishing the ECCC.\n\nThis paper will first explore the way in which ex
 pectations concerning marriage and gender were mobilized by the Lord's Res
 istance Army (LRA) in Uganda and by the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia between 19
 75 and 1979.  While two very different oppressive regimes\, the LRA and th
 e Khmer Rouge raise interesting comparative analyses of the use of marriag
 e as a tool of war. Second\, this paper will take up the defenses' claims 
 in both cases that\, since arranged or forced marriages were commonplace i
 n Uganda and Cambodia\, what happened in war or under the oppressive regim
 e ought not be found to be a crime against humanity. Comparing the institu
 tion of marriage in times of peace relative to its mobilization in conflic
 t puts the questions of consent\, forced labour\, and violence in marriage
  in sharp relief.\n\nLa conférencière\n\n[Anglais seulement]Annie Bunting 
 is an Associate Professor in the Law & Society program at York University 
 in Toronto\, teaching in the areas of legal pluralism and human rights. Pr
 ofessor Bunting is a graduate of York\, having studied law at Osgoode Hall

 mics and Political Science (1991) and her S.J.D. from the Faculty of Law\,
  University of Toronto (1999).\n\nHer research expertise includes socio-le
 gal studies of marriage and childhoods\, feminist international law\, and
