Transparency is the theme of the XIIth Congress of the International Association of Legal Methodology. More than 20 scholars hailing from Europe and North America will convene at the Loyola College of Law to discuss the many facets of openness in government. The requirement that government must operate in the sunshine radiates throughout the legislative, executive and judicial branches. Transparency also informs contractual dealings whether in public procurement or among private parties. What are the conditions to achieve transparency in these different instances? How much room should be allowed for secrecy and confidentiality or for any other countervailing considerations in any of these contexts? Is the information society really the best breeding ground for the achievement of transparency? These are some the questions that will be debated on Thursday November 1st and Friday 2^nd, , 2012.
