Call For Papers:

Law in a Changing Transnational World 

- A Workshop for Young Scholars

The Zvi Meitar Center for Advanced Legal Studies 

at the Faculty of Law, Tel-Aviv University, Israel

30 - 31 October 2013

The modern world is changing at a rapid pace, and the law is in constant reactive mode to accommodate these changes. How should the law adapt to the changing reality? Which fields of law are most affected by globalization? What are the impacts of technological developments on different fields of law? What are the obligations of nations and corporations in an era of global interdependence?

The Zvi Meitar Center for Advanced Legal Studies at the Faculty of Law, Tel-Aviv University, invites PhD candidates and junior scholars from universities and research institutions throughout the world to contribute and advance current thinking about the future of the law in a transnational world. We welcome contributions mainly on the following themes: Law, Science and Technology; Transnational Law and Regional Legal Arrangements; Obligations of Nations in an Era of Global Interdependence; Changing Reality and the Law; and Science, Ethics and Democracy.

Proposals should be submitted by e-mail, to lawtransnationalworld@gmail.com, by 1 May 2013.
