CALL FOR PAPERS

This is an international, inter-disciplinary conference in the area of law, gender, and sexuality, broadly defined. We particularly encourage papers exploring the intersections between gender and sexuality, as well as how other social relations (eg, race, disability) impact on and are shaped by these.

While there is no requirement to adopt any specific theoretical stance, we do expect contributions to have some theoretical content and not simply present material. While papers should engage with the broad theme of law (or governance or regulation), gender, and/or sexuality, we encourage papers from all disciplines in the social sciences and humanities.

We also welcome proposals for panel sessions, and we encourage participants and sessions to consider non-traditional formats.

Abstracts Due by: 31 December 2006

To submit your abstract or panel proposal, please use the Abstract Submission Form.
