From an email message which I received earlier today:
CALL FOR PAPERS: “NEW AND EMERGING VOICES IN WORKPLACE LAW”
JUNIOR SCHOLARS WORKS-IN-PROGRESS PROGRAM
Constructive Feedback. . . Supportive Environment . . . Network-Building Opportunity
(A productive session designed for engagement on a current project with leaders in the field)
The AALS Section on Employment Discrimination Law and AALS Section on Labor Relations and Employment Law will host a joint program, New and Emerging Voices in Workplace Law, during the AALS 2017 Annual Meeting in San Francisco, California on Wednesday, January 4, 2017 from 3:30-4:45 p.m. They are soliciting proposals for presentations now.
Submissions should be in the form of a draft that is near or substantially completed relating to emerging issues in workplace law. If the author would rather submit an Abstract and the Introduction of the article in response to this call for papers that is acceptable, to the extent it is sufficiently developed and detailed to offer the reviewers’ enough information to engage the thesis and organization of the project. To facilitate valuable feedback at the session, we ask that the selected presenter(s) provide a substantial draft to the assigned readers by December 5.
Full-time faculty members of AALS member and fee-paid law schools are eligible to submit proposals. This call for papers is targeted to scholars with seven or fewer years of full-time teaching experience. Visitors (not full-time on a different faculty) and fellows are eligible to apply to present at this session.
To be considered, drafts and/or proposals must be submitted electronically to Professor Brad Areheart, University of Tennessee College of Law, at brad.areheart@tennessee.edu and Professor Michael Z. Green, Texas A&M University School of Law, mzgreen@law.tamu.edu. The deadline for submission is Friday, October 28, 2016. Authors of selected papers will be notified by November 7. Call for Paper participants will also be responsible for paying their annual meeting registration fee and travel expenses.
Presenters will be selected after review by the Program Chairs of both sections. Any inquiries about the Call for Papers should be submitted to: the Program Chair for the Section on Employment Discrimination Law, Professor Brad Areheart, University of Tennessee College of Law, 865.974.6808 or brad.areheart@tennessee.edu and/or the Chair for the Section on Labor Relations and Employment Law, Michael Z.
