2022 REALaw Forum 
European Administrative Law and the Challenges of Uncertainty
The Forum
The Editorial Board of the Review of European Administrative Law (REALaw) is pleased to announce a new edition of the REALaw Forum for young scholars. The 2022 REALaw Forum will take place in Toledo (Spain) on 6 and 7 October 2022, and will be hosted by the Center for European Studies of the University of Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM). The overarching theme of the 2022 Forum is European Administrative Law and the Challenges of Uncertainty. The Forum’s aim is to discuss some of the many and diverse difficulties brought about by scientific or technological uncertainty in the production and enforcement of European administrative law. Administrative decision-making under uncertainty is characterized by the lack or reliable estimates of the value of key variables, and by the lack of confirmed causal theories of the relations among them. This widespread feature of contemporary administration influences European administrative law from various perspectives. The Forum will tackle this from three of them: the tensions and transformations of institutional law (organization and procedure), the substantive law of administrative action (principles and control), and a sectoral approach to two policy areas typically affected by uncertainty (environment and technology). A selection of the presentations will be invited to contribute to a special issue of the Review of European Administrative Law.
