CFP:The Inaugural ASIL Research Forum
Call for Scholarly Papers
The Inaugural ASIL Research Forum
November 4-5, 2011
The American Society of International Law calls for submissions of scholarly paper
proposals for the inaugural ASIL Research Forum to be held at
November 4-5, 2011.
The Research Forum is a new initiative of the Society aimed at providing a setting for
the presentation and focused discussion of works in progress by its members. The
Spring Annual Meeting does this in part through its “works-in-progress” sessions,
but the Research Forum aims to do this exclusively.
The Research Forum will be held in the fall and, as possible, coordinated as an integral
part of the Fall ASIL Mid-Year Meeting. All ASIL members are invited to attend the
Forum, whether presenting a paper or not.
Interested participants should submit a proposal (preferably 500, and no more than
1,000, 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.
Works-in-progress are particularly encouraged. Interdisciplinary projects, empirical
studies, and jointly authored proposals are welcome. Member submissions should be
sent to 2011forum@asil.org by April 30. Proposals will be vetted anonymously by
the Research Forum Committee with selections to be announced by June 15.
