01 Nov Re-issuing our Call for Submissions: Confronting Systemic Racism and Sexism in Legal Academia

As readers may remember, last year we hosted the first edition of this symposium, in collaboration with our friend Rachel Jones, with great success. Back then, we set out rather ambitious objectives: “[W]e hope to imagine alternatives of what the world could be, offering many possible alternative visions of human beings, law, and justice; engage with students by making connections between popular culture...09 Aug Call for Papers: Third Annual Symposium on Pop Culture & International Law
