Call for Papers: New Perspectives in International Legal Theory

The American Society of International Law’s International Legal Theory Interest Group has issued a call for papers for a roundtable on “New Perspectives in International Legal Theory,” to be held during the Interest Group's business meeting at the ASIL Annual Meeting, April 4-7, 2018. Here's the call:

The American Society of International Law’s (ASIL) International Legal Theory Interest Group will use its business meeting at the ASIL Annual Meeting (April 4-7, 2018) to hold a roundtable on “New Perspectives in International Legal Theory.” The Roundtable will afford an opportunity for up to three scholars to present and receive feedback on unpublished papers on topics related to international legal theory. Other interest group members will have an opportunity to read the selected papers in advance of the roundtable to facilitate a vibrant conversation.

Scholars wishing to participate should submit a one-page abstract to the Interest Group’s chair, Evan Criddle (ejcriddle@wm.edu), by March 1, 2018. With the abstract submission, applicants should include their contact information, professional title, institutional affiliation, and number of years teaching in the academy. Preference will be given to scholars who have been teaching at an academic institution in the United States for seven years or fewer. Successful applicants must commit to deliver their draft paper for circulation to the interest group no later than March 20, 2018.
