Volume 46 Symposium:  Civil Rights or Civil Wants?

          The Georgia Law Review will publish our 2011 Symposium, "Civil Rights or Civil Wants," in the spring of 2012.  The motivation for our symposium issue is to celebrate the 50th anniversary of desegregation at the University of Georgia. In addition to remembering this civil rights milestone, we will look forward and examine the civil and human rights issues of today and tomorrow. This year's symposium promises to be filled with interesting legal debate, as our authors discuss modern civil rights issues that are relevant in the U.S. and around the world.

 

 

Volume 47 Symposium 

The Georgia Law Review has opened its selection process for its 2012-2013 symposium. We encourage interested parties to submit symposium topics. The Law Review will host a conference in the Fall of 2012, which will be published in our 47th volume.

If you would like to submit your topic for our consideration, please prepare a 5-6 page proposal, outlining the following information:

  • Topic
  • Why the topic is timely
  • Why the topic is important
  • Why the topic is interesting
  • How the topic advances legal scholarship
  • Proposed list of participants
  • Proposed panels (topic and the list of participants for each panel)
  • Possible funding
  • Any additional information that might help us in evaluating your proposal

You should submit your proposal and any questions to Clare Ellis, the Law Review's Executive Symposium Editor. To allow for ample time to secure symposium participants, we plan to select the topic by April 15, 2012. Proposals received after April 15, 2012 will be considered only if the topic has not been chosen by that point.

If your topic is chosen, our Executive Symposium Editor will work closely with you on logistical details of the symposium.
