1. This‏‏‎ ‎event explored‏‏‎ ‎the details of Brehon‏‏‎ ‎Law‏‏‎ ‎and early Icelandic‏‏‎ ‎Law, showing how justice, society, free markets, and lawmaking worked without centralized power.

   Attendees deepened their understanding of the legal systems of medieval Iceland‏‏‎ ‎and‏‏‎ ‎Ireland, and how these systems‏‏‎ ‎impact modern legal thought.

   David Director‏‏‎ ‎Friedman, a notable American‏‏‎ ‎economist, legal scholar, author, and anarcho-capitalist theorist,‏‏‎ ‎led the‏‏‎ ‎discussion. Friedman, a Harvard‏‏‎ ‎and University‏‏‎ ‎of Chicago alumnus, and former law professor‏‏‎ ‎at Santa Clara University, continues to‏‏‎ ‎influence people globally‏‏‎ ‎with his work, even in his role‏‏‎ ‎as Professor Emeritus.
