The Euromed University of Fes hosts a conference on "The Institution of Liberty"

The Euromed University of Fes had the honor of hosting, on Wednesday September 25, a lecture given by Professor Muriel Fabre-Magnan on the theme "The Institution of Liberty".

This first meeting of the UEMF Conference Series promised to bring enriching perspectives on contemporary themes, bringing together students, teachers and legal professionals. This distinguished law professor from University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, recognized for her contributions to legal philosophy, shared with the audience profound reflections on the place of liberty in modern legal systems.

During her talk, Prof. Fabre-Magnan traced the historical evolution of the notion of liberty through the Declarations of Human Rights, before analyzing how the European Convention on Human Rights frames individual liberties while imposing certain restrictions in the public interest. She then questioned the relationship between liberty and prohibition, showing that these two notions, far from being antinomic, can coexist in contemporary legal systems, where they help define the limits of freedoms in a society governed by the rule of law.

The conference concluded with a rich interaction with the audience. Students, teachers and legal professionals took the opportunity to ask questions, sparking a lively debate around the legal issues raised. The exchanges helped deepen reflections on the tensions between individual rights and collective responsibilities, thus offering participants a new perspective on current issues.
