The
American Society for Legal History has launched a call for papers for its
annual conference, to be held in Houston in November 2018:
The Program Committee of the ASLH invites
proposals for complete panels and individual papers for the 2018 meeting to be
held November 8-11, 2018, in Houston, Texas. Panels and papers on any facet or
period of legal history from anywhere in the world are welcome. Panel proposals
should include: a c.v. for each person on the panel, including complete contact
information; 300-word abstracts of individual papers; complete or partial
drafts of papers, where possible; and a short description of the panel.
The Program Committee also welcomes other
forms of structured presentation to fill a 90-minute slot in, for example,
author-meets-reader, lightning round, workshop, or roundtable format.
Sufficient information following the general guidelines for panel proposals
should be provided for the Committee to assess the merits of the presentation.
Individual paper submissions should consist
of an abstract, a draft paper (where possible), and a c.v. Given the number and
high quality of panel and other complete sessions submitted, individual papers
are much less likely than full sessions to be accepted.
The Program Committee additionally seeks
proposals for full-day or half-day pre-conference symposia crafted around
related themes to augment traditional conference offerings. Please provide a
program title, the intended length of program, a program description, a c.v.
and contact information for each presenter, and any information technology
requirements. The Program Committee is available to consult with organizers of
such symposia as they develop their proposal.
Prospective participants may submit proposals
for multiple sessions, with the understanding that, absent exceptional
circumstances, no individual may appear more than once on the final program in
any capacity. The Program Committee strives to include as many participants as
possible and will work with session organizers to identify suitable
replacements for any sessions from which a participant has had to withdraw.
The members of the Program Committee are
Angela Fernandez, Katrina Jagodinsky, Emily Kadens,
H.Timothy Lovelace, Michelle McKinley, Daniel
J. Sharfstein, Joshua C. Tate, and John Wertheimer.
The co-chairs of the Program Committee are
Professors Catharine MacMillan (catharine.macmillan@kcl.ac.uk) and
Matthew C. Mirow (mirowm@fiu.edu).
All program presenters must be current
members of the Society by the date of the Annual Meeting. All proposals must be
submitted here: https://aslh.confex.com/aslh/2018/cfp.cgi Please visit http://aslh.net for updates and additional information.
The deadline for submissions is
March 1, 2018.
