Tort Law in Bangladesh: Applications and Challenges (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781032077611)

Sakif Alam is a former professor at the North South University in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He completed his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Carleton University, where he was a Deans' List law student, ranked among the top 15 Oralists at the Osgoode Cup, graduated with High Honours, and received a Distinction in his master's thesis. Apart from tort law, his areas of interest include intellectual property, international trade, and private international law. He's interested in seeing an intergovernmental organization, similar to the Dispute Settlement Body of the World Trade Organization, established to address compensatory issues related to victims of corporate misconduct, who often don't receive any compensation from parent companies because of legal technicalities, such as forum non conveniens and lex loci delicti. In the near-future, however, Sakif wants to practice personal injury law in Ontario and continue to teach and pursue research in his areas of interest.
