ASIL Research Forum: Call for Papers

From our friends at ASIL comes word of the call for proposals for this year’s ASIL Research Forum. The deadline for proposals is July 11.  Here’s the text of the whole message:

The American Society of International Law calls for submissions of scholarly paper proposals for the ASIL Research Forum to be held at ASIL Academic Partner University of Washington School of Law in Seattle, Washington, November 11-12, 2016.

The Research Forum, a Society initiative introduced in 2011, aims to provide a setting for the presentation and focused discussion of works-in-progress from across the spectrum of international law. Please note that – in addition to academics – private practitioners, government attorneys, international organization representatives, and non-government lawyers are frequently selected to present papers based on the abstracts they submit.

Papers may be on any topic related to international, comparative, or transnational law and should be unpublished at the time of their submission (for purposes of the call, publication to an electronic database such as SSRN is not considered publication). Interdisciplinary projects, empirical studies, and jointly authored papers are welcome. Multiple submissions are welcome, but authors will only be selected to present on a single abstract, including co-authored papers.

For full instructions and to submit a proposal, visit www.asil.org/researchforum. Submissions are due by 12 noon ET on Monday, July 11, 2016.
