Call For Papers On Constitutional Law: AALS 2010

By Dan Filler

As Rick Garnett reports over at Prawfs, the AALS section on Constitutional Law is holding its second annual Steven G. Gey Call for Papers.   There are panel details over at Prawfs, but here's the actual announcement:

At the 2010 Annual Meeting of the AALS, the Section on Constitutional Law will host a panel exploring the distinction between ?interpretation? and ?construction? in constitutional law.   One paper from an untenured, non-adjunct, faculty of law member will be included.  Its author will join a panel that will include Professors Mitch Berman, Rick Hills, and Keith Whittington, among others. The author must be teaching at an AALS member or AALS fee-paid law school.

To submit an entry, send an abstract of your paper (five pages or less, single-spaced) electronically to Pam Davis: pddavis1@samford.edu.  She is the assistant to executive committee member Brannon P. Denning.  Please include your name, institutional affiliation, and contact information on a cover sheet only.  All entries will be subject to a blind review by various members of the Executive Committee of the Section on Constitutional Law.

Submissions must be received by no later than May 1, 2009.  Late submissions will not be accepted.  The author of the abstract that is chosen will be expected to produce a 20 page (single space) manuscript by the time of the AALS panel.  If you have any questions, please e-mail Professor Denning (bpdennin@samford.edu.)
