The American
Society of International Law calls for submissions of scholarly paper proposals
for the ASIL Research
Forum to be held during the Society's Midyear Meeting at the New
York University School of Law November 1-3, 2013.
The Research Forum, a Society
initiative introduced in 2011, aims to provide a setting for the presentation
and focused discussion of works-in-progress by Society members. All ASIL
members are invited to attend the Forum, whether presenting
a paper or not.
Interested
participants should submit an abstract (no more than 500 words in length)
summarizing the scholarly paper to be presented at the Forum. Papers can be on
any topic related to international and transnational law and should be
unpublished (for purposes of the call, publication to an electronic database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. Member proposals should be submitted
online here
by
June 14.
Proposals will include 1) the name, institutional affiliation, professional
position, and contact information for the author(s), and 2) an abstract. Review
of the abstracts will be blind, and therefore abstracts should not include any
identifying information about the author. Abstracts containing identifying
information will not be reviewed. Proposals will be vetted by the Research Forum Committee
with selections to be announced by July 14.
At present, it
is the intent of the Research Forum Committee to organize the selected paper
proposals around common issues, themes, and approaches. Discussants, who will
comment on the papers, will be assigned to each cluster of papers. All authors
will be required to submit a draft paper four weeks before the Research Forum. The
expectation is that drafts will be posted on the Research Forum website.
