Conference Announcement: Second Annual National Security Law Junior Faculty Workshop

Professor Bobby Chesney of Wake Forest (and the National Security Advisors blog) sends along the following:

The 2^nd annual National Security Law Junior Faculty Workshop will take place in Austin on March 12 and 13, 2009.  This event is unique in that it combines discussion of works-in-progress with training in the law of war provided by instructors from the International Committee of the Red Cross and the US Army JAG School.  The deadline for submitting a paper or abstract for consideration is January 15th.  The full details, including a link to the event announcement, are posted here.  Note that you do not have to submit a paper, let alone have your paper selected, in order to attend the event.  Questions should be submitted to Bobby Chesney at rchesney@law.utexas.edu.

The Robert S. Strauss Center for International Security and Law of the University of Texas will host the event. This promises to be a fantastic conference, especially considering the participation of instructors from both the ICRC and the US Army JAG School.
