The 2010 meeting of the American Society for Legal History will be in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, November 18-21, 2010. The ASLH invites proposals for complete panels and individual papers on any facet or period of legal history, anywhere in the world. Financial assistance will be available for graduate students and international scholars whose papers are accepted for the program.

The Program Committee invites early career scholars (including graduate students) and other scholars who have not been on the ALSH Program before to consult with the Co-Chairs of the Program Committee for advice in constructing a panel, including how to identify and contact others working in your field. Please send inquiries to Kenneth F. Ledford (kenneth.ledford@case.edu) or Barbara Y. Welke (welke004@umn.edu).
