We received the following update
on the 39th Annual Conference of the Australian and New Zealand Law
and History Society’s annual conference:
39th Annual
Conference of the Australian and New Zealand Law and History Society
Join us for an intensive 1
day world-wide gathering devoted to law in history
9 December
2020
Hosted by Event Services at the
University of Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand
Keynote plenary sessions will
feature
Joshua Getzler, Oxford
University, on “ Six Nations of the Grand River, military feudalism, and the roots of
‘honour of the Crown’.”
Miranda Johnson, Otago
University, on “Reckoning with a Pacific empire state: Race, nation, citizenship and the
idea of New Zealand.”
A Closing Address by Dame Sian Elias, former Chief Justice of New
Zealand
The organisers have accepted 39
individual papers and 7 panel
presentations.
They will be run in four concurrent parallel sessions throughout the day. The
programme will be uploaded to the ANZLHS website page shortly: https://anzlhs.org/conferences-2/
The timings will be specified
according to the NZDT time zone – which is UTC+13. We have attempted to time
presentations so that are as reasonable as possible for the presenters (but
will be difficult for some). The conference will begin at 9.00am and conclude
at 7.00pm NZDT
To cover Event Services charges,
and to ensure a high quality of digital platform delivery utilising Zoom, Vimeo
and Twilio, we are asking all attendees to pay a modest registration fee. In
addition, the rules of the ANZLHS require all presenters to pay the Society’s 2020
annual subscription. So
‘full member registration’ applies to presenters who have paid the 2020 Society
subscription in advance; ‘full non-member registration’ applies to presenters
(some of whom will have been members in the past) who have not yet paid the
2020 Society subscription. We are waiving registration fees for postgraduate
student presenters. The portal for registrations will be launched shortly
through the website page. The cost for registration is as follows in $NZ:
Full member registration:
$130; Full non-member registration: $ 215; Full-time post
graduate presenters: Fee waiver; Attendance only registration: $130
Graduate students are invited to
apply for Kercher Scholarships. Five scholarship awards will be made
that may adorn your cv even though there is no monetary element to the
scholarship this year. Please apply to Katherine Sanders: k.sanders@auckland.ac.nz by
20 November if you
have not already applied. Graduate attendees may also wish to
enter their paper for the Forbes Society Prize. The Society’s peer-reviewed
journal law&history will consider submissions
from those who present papers at the conference. In the meantime further
information about the conference may be gleaned from David Williams: dv.williams@auckland.ac.nz
