Call for Papers: "Authority" in International Dispute Settlement

The Lauterpacht Centre for International Law at the University of Cambridge has issued a call for papers for a workshop for young scholars and Ph.D. candidates on "'Authority' in International Dispute Settlement," to be held on March 20, 2017. Here's the call:

Young scholars and PhD candidates interested in empirical methods in international law are invited to submit expressions of interest for this workshop on the use of "authorities" in international dispute settlement. The workshop will not involve the publication of papers, although works-in-progress will be discussed by the participants. By bringing together young and established scholars using empirical methods, this workshop aspires to provide inspiration and practical guidance.

The workshop, funded by the British Academy, is organised by Dr Michael Waibel and will take place on 20 March 2017, at the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law at the University of Cambridge. Expressions of interest shall be sent to Damien Charlotin (dc655@cam.ac.uk) by 10 January 2017 with a description of your research interests and how they relate to the theme of the workshop, plus a CV with a list of publications. The organizer will let applicants know by 20 January 2017 about the outcome of their application.
