Human Rights Paper Workshop—Berkeley, CA

The American Society of International Law (ASIL) Human Rights Interest Group is holding its first paper workshop on Friday, Nov. 22, 2013, at Berkeley Law, University of California. The workshop will be a daylong event with an informal conference dinner in the evening. The submission deadline was Sept. 9, 2013.

If you have a work in progress that you would like to present, please send a short abstract to interest group co-chairs Robert Blitt (rblitt@utk.edu) and Saira Mohamed (smohamed@law.berkeley.edu) by Monday, September 9. Please also include a sentence about the stage you expect the paper will be in by November (e.g., reasonably complete draft, incomplete draft, etc.). Paper presenters will be asked to circulate their drafts to workshop attendees no later than November 8.

If you are interested in serving as a commentator for a paper, please send us an email by September 9. Commentators will be asked to prepare 5-8 minutes of comments on one of the papers.

Participants who are not ASIL members will be required to pay a $75 registration fee (includes workshop and meals). We look forward to seeing many of you on November 22 at Berkeley Law.
