The AALS Section on Transactional Laws and Skills invites paper submissions for its program “Markets and Regulation: The Shifting Context of Transactional Practice” to be held at the AALS 2020 Annual Meeting in Washington D.C.
This session will explore the changing regulatory context of transactional legal practice, which is rapidly evolving in response to new innovations and challenges across a range of markets. Emerging issues range from privacy law and cybersecurity, to national security concerns, antitrust, and international trade and investment, to the prospect of new regulatory responses to climate change and other environmental threats. The forms these regulatory responses take are also diverse, including not only traditional public regulation, but also private governance, which draws upon the efforts of NGOs, trade associations, and international organizations.
The full call is available here.
The submission deadline is August 15, 2019.
Any inquiries about the Call for Papers should be submitted to the Section Chair Virginia Harper Ho, University of Kansas School of Law, at vharperho@ku.edu or (785) 864-9217.
