CALL FOR PAPERS

The Program Committee of the International Annual Conference of the Israeli Law and Society Association (ILSA) invites scholars conducting research on any aspect of Law and Society to submit proposals for individual papers and organized panels. Panels and papers devoted to the main theme of the conference - "Global, Regional, and Local: Law, Politics, and Society in Comparative Perspectives" - are especially invited. Other topics relating to the field of law and society in its broader meaning are also welcome.

Proposals should be accompanied by an abstract of 300 words as Word email attachment (include title of paper, name and email address of author/s with the text of the abstract). Organizers of panels should collect abstracts from the panel participants and submit them together with a description of the panel. Graduate students should submit a letter from their thesis supervisor in support of the proposal, together with the abstract.

Proposals should be submitted by email to the Program Committee at:

Selected papers will be integrated into a special volume of "Hamishpat" [translated as THE LAW] (published by the Law School, College of Management) after a process of peer-review evaluations. Call for articles will be sent by the journal in due time.
