Another call for papers, this one is from our friends at Washington University in St. Louis. The call for papers, almost in its entirety, is below:
In fall 2007, the Washington University School of Law Clinical Education Program sponsored a very successful scholarship roundtable on New Directions in Clinical Theory, Teaching, and Practice. Papers from that roundtable were published in fall 2008 in volume 28 of the Journal of Law and Policy. You can access this outstanding volume at http://law.wustl.edu/Journal/index.asp?ID=6826
In fall 2009, the Clinical Education Program will collaborate with the law school’s Alternative Dispute Resolution Program to host a follow-up scholarship roundtable on New Directions in Clinical Theory, Teaching, and Practice – and New Directions in ADR Theory, Teaching, and Practice. At the roundtable, we will have presentation of drafts and discussion among the ten selected ADR and clinical faculty and practitioners, and several local commentators. We anticipate that approximately five of the articles will focus on ADR and five on clinical education – or a combination thereof. The Journal of Law and Policy will publish the papers from that roundtable in volume 34, scheduled to be published in fall 2010. The goal of this volume is to highlight and advance scholarship about innovative, interdisciplinary, and international ADR and clinical theory, practice, and teaching.
If you would like to participate in the roundtable and publish in this volume, we invite you to submit a minimum one page abstract to the Journal no later than May 15, 2009 to Megan Kokontis, Managing Editor, at mmkokontis@wulaw.wustl.edu with carbons to Annette Appell, Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs, at arappell@wulaw.wustl.edu, and Karen Tokarz, Director, Alternative Dispute Resolution Program, at tokarz@wulaw.wustl.edu. Beginning and experienced dispute resolution and clinical faculty are encouraged to submit abstracts. Selected authors will be notified by June 1 and will be required to submit first drafts of their articles by October 1, 2009 and final drafts by February 1, 2010. Authors will be expected to present their papers at the scholarship roundtable, scheduled for Thursday afternoon and Friday, November 12-13, 2009. The volume will go to press in summer 2009.
