[We have received the following Call for Papers. The deadline is Oct.25.]
Yale Law School is proud to host its Sixth Annual Doctoral Scholarship
Conference, which will be held on Friday and Saturday, November 11-12,
2016, in New Haven, Connecticut. The conference aims to provide doctoral
students and recent graduates with a forum to present, share and debate their
work. It seeks to promote quality research and to facilitate dialogue across diverse
subject areas and methodological approaches, with a view towards fostering a
community of legal scholars.
The conference is open to all current doctoral candidates, in law or related
disciplines, and to those who completed their doctorate during the 2015-2016
academic year. We welcome submissions engaging any area of law. Papers will
be selected based on quality and their capacity to provoke thoughtful debate with
other submissions.
We regret that we are unable to provide financial assistance to attend the
conference. There is no obligation, or mechanism, to publish with us. We want to
provide an environment of feedback and support for your current work. All papers
will be assigned a discussant, and we kindly ask accepted speakers also to discuss
a paper.
