Stanford Law Review Online Symposium: Call for Abstracts “Immigration Out of the Headlines”

Stanford Law Review Online Symposium, Call for Abstracts: “Immigration out of the Headlines”

Stanford Law Review Online is now accepting abstracts for proposed essays for an online symposium dedicated to immigration law, which will be published in 2019.

From the travel ban to the separation of families at the border, immigration news stories have dominated media headlines. Stanford Law Review Online seeks to publish pioneering, thoughtful, and nuanced legal scholarship that goes beyond the headlines and tackles important but overlooked immigration law issues. Essays might analyze overlooked questions relating to discretion in administrative agency decision-making, the intersection of immigration and the criminal justice system, the detention and bond system, the role of federal courts, or other topics.

How to submit: Interested authors should submit an abstract of up to 500 words and a CV to online@stanfordlawreview.org with the subject line “Immigration Law Online Symposium” by September 30, 2018. Selected authors’ completed papers of 3,000 to 5,000 words (including footnotes) will be due to Stanford Law Review Online by December 14, 2018. Any questions should be sent to Andra Lim, Online Editor-in-Chief, at online@stanfordlawreview.org.
