Call for Papers Deadline: Charleston Law Review

The Charleston Law Review is the flagship journal of the Charleston School of Law and is currently accepting submissions ON ANY SUBJECT MATTER for its first issue of Volume 3. Though we are a young journal at a young institution, the Charleston Law Review has enjoyed the privilege of publishing some of our nation’s leading thinkers and has earned a reputation as being a professional publication that authors have enjoyed working with.

In its second volume, for example, the Charleston Law Review garnered national recognition for publishing Senator and Democratic Presidential Nominee Barack Obama and hosting a punitive damages symposium that featured leading thinkers such as Professor Anthony Sebok of the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, Professor Neil Vidmar of Duke Law School, Professor Keith Hylton of Boston University Law School, and Professor Mike Rustad of Suffolk University Law School. The symposium volume also included noted practitioners Ms. Elizabeth Cabraser and Mr. Victor Schwartz. In its general issues, Charleston Law Review also published notable scholars such as Professor Walter Murphy of Princeton University and Professor John Yoo of University of California Berkeley Law School.

Currently, we are accepting submissions ON ANY SUBJECT MATTER for our first issue of Volume 3. Deadline is August 8th. For further information on the Charleston Law Review, please contact Editor-in-Chief Katie Fowler via email at kfowler [at] charlestonlaw.org or via telephone at 803-309-5421.

Call for Papers Deadline: Financial Markets, Systemic Risk: Global Repercussions of Subprime Mortgage Meltdown

On February 20, 2009, the Journal of Transnational Law and Contemporary Problems (TLCP) at the University of Iowa College of Law, in conjunction with the University of Iowa Center for International Finance & Development (UICIFD), will hold a symposium on Financial Markets and Systemic Risk: The Global Repercussions of the U.S. Subprime Mortgage Meltdown. The purposes of the one-day symposium are three-fold. First, the symposium will seek to identify the causes and origins of the current international financial crisis. Second, it will assess the regulatory responses in the U.S. and abroad, as well as cooperatives responses among the various regional and international organizations. Finally, it will explore ways in which future financial crises of similar ilk can be prevented.

The TLCP and UICIFD invite interested persons to submit abstracts of papers relating to the themes of the symposium’s three panels to TLCP Editor in Chief, Minji Kim at Minji-Kim [at] uiowa.edu. The papers will be published in the TLCP in the winter of 2009, and the journal will arrange for funding to cover transportation and lodging for the symposium’s participants.

The full call for papers is here. “The deadline for submission of the abstracts is Monday, July 21, 2008. However, we encourage interested panelists to submit their abstracts as soon as possible.”
