SUMMARY:2025 Twenty-Seventh Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\nEvery year\, the Association holds it annual conference\, usually a two-day affair\, as well as a graduate student workshop\, usually held on the day before the annual conference. The 2025 annual meeting will be held at Georgetown Law from June 17-18th. The theme of the conference\, our call for papers\, and submissions guidelines can be found below: \n\n\n\nSpeech Matters \n\n\n\nWe live in a golden or an iron age\, depending on one’s point of view\, for laws regulating speech. The COVID-19 pandemic forced governments around the world to reckon with floods of dis- and misinformation. The global rise of the far right has brought with it a need for new legal tools to combat threats\, harassment\, and hate speech. And in the United States\, state and local governments have attempted to suppress speech by or about unpopular subjects through means ranging from book bans to felony prosecutions. For this year’s Law\, Culture\, and Humanities Annual Conference\, we invite papers on how the law conceptualizes\, regulates\, commodifies\, or instrumentalizes speech (broadly defined not just as language but as expressive activity). In particular\, we welcome papers that use humanistic tools for making sense of speech and expression—concepts from rhetoric\, narrative theory\, aesthetics\, genre studies\, and more—to tackle new or persistent legal puzzles. \n\n\n\nMode \n\n\n\nThe twenty-seventh annual conference will emphasize the LCH tradition of in-person conversation. While we encourage participants to join us in Washington\, D.C.\, we recognize that in-person attendance may be prohibitive for some. To that end\, we will also accept the submission of virtual panels. \n\n\n\nSince we will not be providing technical support for virtual participants\, panel chairs will be responsible for providing Zoom links that will be listed in the program. All plenary sessions will be available streaming online as well as in person. \n\n\n\nConference Registration \n\n\n\nRegistration for the conference is closed. \n\n\n\nSchedule \n\n\n\nThe full conference program and a shorter schedule at glance can be found here: \n\n\n\n\nProgram and schedule\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule at a glance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSubmission Deadline \n\n\n\nSubmissions are currently closed. \n\n\n\nAccommodations  \n\n\n\nConference attendees are responsible for making their own travel and lodging arrangements. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBook Exhibit \n\n\n\nWe expect to have a place to display recently published books. If you would like to display yours\, please bring a copy and we will be happy to include it. \n\n\n\nContact Information \n\n\n\nPlease email lch@lawculturehumanities.com with any queries.

SUMMARY:2025 Graduate Student Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n      \n        \n\nInterested in attending the workshop?\n\n\n\nThe application deadline is February 5\, 2025. \n\n\n\nPlease use the subject line: LCH Grad Workshop Application. \n\n\n\nPlease name your file(s) using your lastname first\, e.g. “Miller_application” or “Miller_cv”. Please remind us if you applied for or participated in a previous workshop and\, if so\, which one(s). \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nSubmit your application\n\n\n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nThe annual Association for the Study of Law\, Culture\, and the Humanities Graduate Student Workshop will be held on Monday\, June 16\, 2025 (the day before the annual meeting begins). \n\n\n\nThe workshop is designed for graduate students who are undertaking research that cuts across law\, cultural studies\, literature\, philosophy\, legal studies\, anthropology\, political science\, and history\, among others. The workshop is designed to afford graduate students the opportunity to experience the LCH community in a smaller venue with more sustained contact with one another and some faculty. The workshop also provides graduate students with an opportunity to discuss their research projects in a small group setting in anticipation of such things as job talks and publication. \n\n\n\nApplications to the workshop should consist of a current curriculum vitae (2-3 page maximum)\, an abstract of a current project not exceeding 700 words that explicitly addresses how it relates to law\, culture and the humanities\, as well as a short (5 page maximum) text relating to that project. This “text” could be a case\, literary work\, a time-line\, a photo\, a sound or video file\, or some other relevant text. The text you choose should be something that helps you reflect on the subject of your work and your methods of analysis. Please use your judgment and best guess in deciding how audio\, visual\, or audio-visual materials “translate” into pages of text. \n\n\n\nWhile it is possible to participate in both the workshop and the LCH annual conference\, the two events are separate and require separate applications. Should workshop participants wish to present at the conference as well\, they will need to submit a proposal here (in addition to their workshop application). Should workshop participants wish to attend the conference but not present a paper\, they will need to register (once registration for the conference becomes available). \n\n\n\nApplicants whose workshop proposals are accepted will receive some support towards an extra night’s accommodation from LCH as well as some support (varying\, depending on distance traveled) towards the cost of transportation to the conference site. While those who participated in a previous workshop may re-apply and participate again\, should space and/or funds be limited\, we will prioritize new participants. Please email your applications to lch@lawculturehumanities.com by February 5\, 2025.

SUMMARY:Zoom Session - “Stop Reading! Look!” Law\, Politics\, and Popular Visual Culture in Weimar Germany
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n      \n        \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nThe period of the Weimar Republic represents a vital chapter in the history of visual culture. The “watchword of the times” was\, according to film critic Erich Burger\, “the picture: the still picture\, the moving picture\, the picture in every guise”. In his aptly titled essay of 1928\, “Stop Reading! Look!”\, artist Johannes Molzahn captured not only the growing importance of images in everyday life but also the emergence of Weimar culture’s new imperative to look and to see. As part of the ‘cultural turn’ in Weimar historiography\, recent scholarship has done much to reveal how visual practices and representations were implicated in contemporary politics. Yet only scant attention has been given to the articulations between law and the visual\, and how these relate to the broader political context(s) of the time. In this session\, Steven Howe\, Laura Petersen and Nicole Schraner (all University of Lucerne) will introduce aspects of their current project that addresses this gap in the literature\, and which aims to explore some of the many ways in which the legal\, political and visual cultures of the era intersect and interact. \n\n\n\nThe session will feature short presentations on cinema (Howe)\, visual art (Petersen) and photography (Schraner)\, followed by a Q&A.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Zoom Session - Wheels and Wings: Law\, Regulation\, and Mass Mobility in the 20th Century
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n      \n        \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nEva Vaillancourt (History\, UC Berkeley) and Joanna Grisinger (Law\, Northwestern University) bring their recent research projects into conversation. \n\n\n\nEva Vaillancourt\, Dept. of History\, UC Berkeley \n\n\n\n“The Birth of the British Crosswalk: Mystical Lines\, Mechanical Obedience\, and the Puzzle of Law-as-Infrastructure” \n\n\n\nWhen the first pedestrian crosswalks appeared in Britain in 1934\, most people found them baffling\, if not a little absurd: how do painted lines on the pavement protect you from oncoming cars? They don’t\, one comedian remarked: “But if a car kills you while you are standing in it\, the police won’t blame you.” This paper follows the crosswalk’s early career in British tort law\, where the meaning of this new technology was hashed out over a series of cases in the late 1930s and 40s. Debate turned on questions of the body in time and space (e.g. How close to the crosswalk does a car have to be before the pedestrian’s decision to assert her right-of-way becomes “unreasonable?”)\, but also on wider questions about law itself. Is following the state’s rules enough to satisfy your duty of care to your fellow man? Can state regulation replace moral and situational judgment\, effectively “automating” the unstable human relationships on which social reproduction depends? Finally\, can we rely on legal rules to deliver a person safely from one side of the street to the other\, in the same way we’d trust a bridge to deliver us safely across a river? In short\, are legal rules a form of infrastructure?   \n\n\n\nJoanna Grisinger\, Center for Legal Studies\, Northwestern University \n\n\n\n“The Highs and Lows of Airline Travel: Consumer Rights\, Airlines\, and the Civil Aeronautics Board” \n\n\n\nIn the 1960s and 1970s\, as soon as Americans began traveling by air in record numbers\, they began complaining about it. Passengers took offense at race discrimination\, sex discrimination\, discrimination against physically disabled passengers\, discrimination against non-VIPs\, delayed and cancelled flights\, lost luggage\, the lack of seatbelts in airplane bathrooms\, and the absence of hot dogs from airline menus. Aggrieved passengers turned to the federal Civil Aeronautics Board\, demanding that the federal government put passengers at the center of its regulatory efforts. This clash between competing definitions of the public interest forced the board to reorient its traditional reactive approach to enforcing the law\, and to adopt more proactive measures that established rules for passengers and airlines alike.

SUMMARY:Zoom Session - The War on the Humanities and Transnational Solidarities
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n      \n        \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nIn 2015\, an article in The Guardian highlighted a war being waged against the humanities in the UK\, driven by market forces that demand degrees directly linked to job opportunities. According to the article\, the market dictates a greater investment in STEM subjects\, IT\, and environmental studies\, which are deemed more valuable for the new world we are entering. This shift requires a de-investment from the humanities. Furthermore\, the article reports a stifling decline in student demand for degrees in humanities and social sciences\, including literature\, history\, philosophy\, gender studies\, and critical theory. This trend is not unique to the UK\, as similar challenges to the humanities are ongoing and even more extensive in other regions\, such as the USA and Japan.  \n\n\n\nThe inaugural Zoom symposium on Contemporary Issues in Law and Humanities\, titled ‘The War on the Humanities and Transnational Solidarities\,’ aims to bring together scholars from around the world to examine the global devaluation of the humanities. The symposium will explore its impact on research and teaching and share strategies\, projects\, and ideas for creative responses. Speakers will be asked to address the following four questions: \n\n\n\nHow can we form transnational solidarities for the study of law and the humanities? \n\n\n\nHow does the devaluation of the Humanities manifests itself in the country that you areworking in? \n\n\n\nHow it affects research in the Humanities/Law and Humanities \n\n\n\nWhat can/is being done to counter this? \n\n\n\nChair: Elena Loizidou (Birkbeck University\, School of Law) \n\n\n\nSpeakers:Stewart Motha (Birkbeck University\, School of Law)\, Andreas Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos(University of Westminster\, Law)\, Karin Van Marle (University of Western Cape\, Research and Innovation)\, Debaditya Bhattacharya (Jamia Millia Islamia\, Department of English)\, Julia Bell (Birkbeck University\, School of Creative Arts\, Culture and Communication)\, James Martel (San Franscisco State University\, Department of Political Science)

SUMMARY:2024 Twenty-Sixth Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\nEvery year\, the Association holds it annual conference\, usually a two-day affair\, as well as a graduate student workshop\, usually held on the day before the annual conference. The theme of this year’s conference is “Senses of Law”. \n\n\n\nSenses of Law \n\n\n\nLaw is heard\, seen\, experienced\, felt\, and understood in many ways. This year’s theme invites submissions on legal senses\, sensibilities\, and sensations. What satisfies “the sense of justice”? What makes for a legal sensation? How does law depend on\, appeal to\, or defy common sense(s)? What are the different sensibilities that law creates\, cultivates\, challenges\, and ignores? How do the meanings that law takes for granted\, or brings into being\, fall differently on different ears? \n\n\n\nSubmission Guidelines \n\n\n\nThe deadline to submit proposals has now passed. \n\n\n\nMode \n\n\n\nThe twenty-sixth annual conference will emphasize the LCH tradition of in-person conversation. While we encourage participants to join us in Vancouver\, we recognize that in-person attendance may be prohibitive for some. To that end\, we will also accept the submission of virtual panels. \n\n\n\nSince we will not be providing technical support for virtual participants\, panel chairs will be responsible for providing Zoom links that will be listed in the program. All plenary sessions will be available streaming online as well as in person. \n\n\n\nAttendance Options \n\n\n\nUnfortunately\, LCH is unable to offer funding support for travel\, accommodation\, or conference registration costs. Those for whom travel to Vancouver might be prohibitively costly or logistically challenging are warmly encouraged to consider submitting a proposal for an online session. Participants who require a letter of invitation in order to secure a visa to attend the conference are encouraged to reach out to Daniel Kennedy at lch@lawculturehumanities.com. \n\n\n\nContact Information \n\n\n\nIn case of any query drop us a message at lch@lawculturehumanities.com. \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nConference Program and Schedule\n\n\n\nThe final versions of the 2024 conference program\, schedule\, and quick-view grid are now available! Check out the exciting panels happening this year! \n\n\n\n\nProgram and Schedule\n\n\n\nQuick-View Grid\n\n\n\nSchedule (with Zoom links)\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nConference Registration\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is now open\, and will close on 10 May. As in previous years\, registration will increase by $50 (graduate students are exempt from this late fee) one week before registration closes. In a new approach for the 2024 conference\, please note that accepted presenters must register for the conference by 24 April\, 2024. Those who do not register by this date will be dropped from the program\, to guard against last-minute shifts in panel personnel. Participants who do not appear on the program are welcome to register online up to 10 May.\n\n\n\nLCH membership is required to register for the conference and must be purchased before registration.\n\n\n\nPlease note: there will be no on-site registration at the conference.\n\n\n\nCovid Policy: We at LCH remain committed to providing an accessible conference experience. Given loosening protocols in Canada\, we have chosen to continue including virtual panels and attendees. Mask wearing is optional for in-person attendees\, and we encourage presenters to be in touch with their co-panelists once the program has been finalized regarding decisions around masking during the panel. Please recall that LCH 2024 panels must be either fully online or fully in-person; we are not equipped to support hybrid sessions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nAccepted presenters must register for the conference by 24 April. All other participants must register by 10 May. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMake sure to become a member before you register. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBecome a Member\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nConference Fees\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fees for in-person participation are \n\n\n\nGraduate students and post-doctoral scholars$35Income less than $75\,000$125Income between $75\,000-$99\,999$155Income between $100\,000-$124\,999$210Income $125\,000 and over$260\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fees to participate remotely are \n\n\n\nGraduate students and post-doctoral scholarsFreeIncome less than $75\,000$50Income between $75\,000-$99\,999$50Income between $100\,000-$124\,999$50Income $125\,000 and over$50\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFees for in-person participation will increase by $50 after 3 May\, except for graduate students and post-doctoral scholars. \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nAccommodations\n\n\n\nConference attendees are responsible for making their own travel and lodging arrangements.

Please remind us if you applied for or participated in a previous workshop and\, if so\, which one(s). \n\n\n\n\n\n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nThe Annual Association for the Study of Law\, Culture\, and the Humanities Graduate Student Workshop will be held on Thursday\, May 16\, 2024 (the day before the annual meeting begins). \n\n\n\nThe workshop is designed for graduate students who are undertaking research that cuts across law\, cultural studies\, literature\, philosophy\, legal studies\, anthropology\, political science\, and history\, among others. The workshop is designed to afford graduate students the opportunity to experience the LCH community in a smaller venue with more sustained contact with one another and some faculty. The workshop also provides graduate students with an opportunity to discuss their research projects in a small group setting in anticipation of such things as job talks and publication. \n\n\n\nApplications to the workshop should consist of a current curriculum vitae (2-3 page maximum)\, an abstract of a current project not exceeding 700 words\, as well as a short (5- page maximum) text relating to that project. This “text” could be a case\, literary work\, a time-line\, a photo\, a sound or video file\, or some other relevant text. The text you choose should be something that helps you reflect on the subject of your work and your methods of analysis. Please use your judgment and best guess in deciding how audio\, visual\, or audio-visual materials “translate” into pages of text. \n\n\n\nApplicants whose proposals are accepted will receive some support towards an extra night’s accommodation from LCH as well as some support (varying\, depending on distance traveled) towards the cost of transportation to the conference site. While those who participated in a previous workshop may re-apply and participate again\, should space and/or funds be limited\, we will prioritize new participants. Please email your applications to lch@lawculturehumanities.com by February 5\, 2024.

In addition\, our theme this year is: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABSENCE\, THE PRESENT AND THE PAST\n\n\n\nThe last few years have been marked by palpable absence: the absence of face-to-face encounters\, shared meals\, shared lives; the absence of in-person study\, of spontaneous meetings in hallways and coffee shops — a seemingly interminable stretch of missed experiences and encounters. As we come back together and restart our offline lives\, we carry the absences and missed opportunities of the recent pandemic with us. Absence signals both a void and a clearing: a call for us to be present once more to ourselves and each other. In some instances\, we know what we have missed; at other times\, we find ourselves surprised and undone by what we have not realized has been missing all this time. To dwell on this absence is not only to live in a state of lament or regret; it is also to imagine the possibilities that arise when we attend closely to what has been missing. \n\n\n\nIn this spirit of absence as loss and potential\, we invite papers from across the disciplines that consider law in relation to absence. How might we conceive of law in the absence of justice\, or imagine jurisprudence in the absence of precedent? What juridical potential arises in a moment of crisis and deprivation? What does law miss in entering these moments—and how might law’s missed encounters bring into relief the gaps in the interstices of contemporary culture? What does law miss—and what does it engage—when it serves as a source of social meaning and remediation? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAttendance Options\n\n\n\nOur twenty-fifth annual conference will emphasize the LCH tradition of in-person conversation. While we encourage participants to join us in Toronto\, we recognize that in-person attendance may be prohibitive for some. To that end\, we will also accept submission of virtual panels. Since we will not be providing technical support for virtual participants\, panel chairs will be responsible for providing Zoom links that will be listed in the program. All plenary sessions will be available in streaming online as well as in person. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nConference Program and Schedule\n\n\n\nThe final 2023 conference program (PDF)\, schedule (online)\, and quick-view grid (PDF) are now available!

SUMMARY:2022 Twenty-Fourth Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Session – The Place of Race in Law & Literature\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Share this page \n    \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n      \n        \n\nConference Program\n\n\n\n\nView Program\n\n\n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nThe 2022 LCH conference considers topics broadly related to law and legal studies. In addition\, our theme this year is: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnsettling Law\n\n\n\nLaw often resides in the pull between what is settled and what is not. Precedent guides us until it does not. Law’s stability is in constant conversation with its own necessary responsiveness as well as with what troubles it from outside of legal institutions. Disobediences\, whether civil or not\, have the power to unsettle what is taken to be settled. And forces like climate change pose challenges to settled law by destabilizing what may make obedience and order possible at all. Law continually expands the range of persons it recognizes\, for better or worse\, while it claims across all changes that it serves the interests of all. Borders exclude but remain permeable\, and we argue about what is owed to others regardless of their citizenship status. States claim sovereignty and face refusals from other sovereignties within their borders. Even settler colonialism is a process rather than an outcome\, so what is settled and what remains open to different futures may be contested. How do and should we imagine law in these unsettled times? What creative forces might we bring to bear in these moments between past and future\, whether for unsettling what ought to change or stabilizing what is endangered? How might different disciplines\, methodologies\, arts\, literatures\, and technologies represent\, reinforce\, or resist unsettling law? We invite proposals taking up that question from a variety of humanities-oriented perspectives. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAttendance Options\n\n\n\nThe conference will emphasize the LCH tradition of in-person conversation while making some panels available for those who wish to participate virtually. Rather than hosting hybrid panels\, there will be one full session dedicated to online panels each day of the conference. Virtual attendees can view these\, and there will be public viewing rooms at the conference so that attendees can engage in conversation with each other and the virtual panelists. We will also host three plenary sessions that will be available in person as well as streaming online. Some of the in-person panels will be streamed during the sessions that aren’t online-dedicated. Information to plan your trip to Atlanta is available here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nConference Registration\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembership in LCH is required to register for the conference and must be purchased before registration.\n\n\n\nA 50% refund will be issued in the event that a participant has to cancel their registration.\n\n\n\nAll conference attendees are required to read and respect LCH’s COVID policy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration process\n\n\n\nMake sure to become a member before you register! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBecome a Member\n\n\n\nRegister for Conference\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nConference Fees\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fees for in-person participation in the Conference are: \n\n\n\nGraduate students and post-doctoral scholars$35Income less than $75\,000$125Income between $75\,000-$99\,999$155Income between $100\,000-$124\,999$210Income $125\,000 and over$260\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fees to participate remotely are: \n\n\n\nGraduate students and post-doctoral scholarsFreeIncome less than $75\,000$50Income between $75\,000-$99\,999$75Income between $100\,000-$124\,999$100Income $125\,000 and over$150\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGraduate Workshop\n\n\n\n\n\nThe LCH Graduate Workshop will be held at Emory on Wednesday\, June 15. We will circulate information about it soon. Any questions may be directed to lch@lawculturehumanities.com. \n\n\n\nThe workshop is designed for graduate students who are undertaking research that cuts across law\, cultural studies\, literature\, philosophy\, legal studies\, anthropology\, political science\, and history\, among others. The workshop is designed to afford graduate students the opportunity to experience the LCH community in a smaller venue with more sustained contact with one another and some faculty. The workshop also provides graduate students with an opportunity to discuss their research projects in a small group setting in anticipation of such things as job talks and publication.  \n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nCOVID Policy\n\n\n\n\n\nAs part of the registration process\, you will be asked to confirm you have read our COVID policy and will honor it to the best of your ability. \n\n\n\n\nLCH will require that those in attendance at the conference wear KN95 or comparable masks whenever they are in the conference venue. We will have a limited supply of masks available. \n\n\n\nWe ask that people attending the conference be vaccinated and boosted\, and that attendees self-administer COVID rapid tests before attending the conference each day. We will not be requiring or verifying that people are vaccinated or tested.\n\n\n\nPlease do not attend the conference if you are symptomatic or test positive. If you should find that you have COVID soon after attending the conference\, please let us know so we can inform the community of people who also attended.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nATlanta information\n\n\n\nAs of April 2022\, 98.8% of students and 97.5% of faculty and staff at Emory are fully vaccinated\, and 95% of students and 91.5% of faculty and staff are boosted. Emory maintains a COVID dashboard that offers information on COVID cases and prevalence at Emory and the surrounding counties. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\n\n\nPlanning your Stay in Atlanta\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\nAccommodation\n\n\n\n\nThe Hyatt is offering LCH attendees a promotional rate of $164/night (before taxes) for the evenings of June 15th\, 16th\, and/or 17th. The hotel has set aside a limited number of rooms at this rate. We therefore encourage you to book early to secure the rate. Book this hotel here.  \n\n\n\nMidtown\, Atlanta\, is a 15-20 minute drive from the law school. We encourage attendees to stay in Midtown so as to maximize opportunities for socializing outside of the conference. There will be shuttle service available from the Hyatt Centric Midtown (schedule available in program). \n\n\n\nFor those wishing to stay close to Emory Law School\, there are two options: \n\n\n\n\nThe University Inn is a 3-star motel with reasonable rates directly across the street from the Law School. There are a few restaurants in nearby Emory Village (a 7 minute walk)\, but this is otherwise a quiet area with little nightlife.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe more expensive Emory Conference Center and Hotel is located one mile down Clifton Road from the Law School. It’s about a twenty minute walk to the Law School. There are a few restaurants in nearby Emory Point\, but this complex\, across the street from the CDC\, is located in an otherwise a quiet area with little nightlife.\n\n\n\n\nAn additional option for lodging are the numerous hotels in Decatur Square in downtown Decatur\, Georgia\, which is a ten minute drive from Emory Law School. There are lots of hotels and restaurants surrounding the square\, which is anchored by a MARTA subway stop. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\nTransportation\n\n\n\n\nGetting from the Airport to…\n\n\n\nMidtown Atlanta \n\n\n\n\nA rideshare typically costs $25-30 before tip. \n\n\n\n\n\nFar easier and nearly as fast is to take MARTA. Trains leave the airport every 7-10 minutes throughout the day. One way fare is $2.50. Take a Gold or Red line train North to Midtown Station (approximately 22 minutes). The Hyatt Centric is a four minute walk from the subway station.\n\n\n\n\nEmory University Area Hotels\n\n\n\n\nA ride-share typically costs $30-40 before tip and is much easier and faster than taking MARTA. \n\n\n\n\n\nIt is possible to take MARTA\, however: from the Airport station\, take the Red or Gold line train North to Lindbergh Station (runs every 7-10 minutes) and transfer to a #6 Bus (runs every 40 minutes)\, which runs down Clifton Road\, with stops in front of the conference center and the law school (total travel time is about an hour). One way fare is $2.50.\n\n\n\n\nDecatur Square \n\n\n\n\nA ride-share typically costs $30-40 before tip. \n\n\n\n\n\nEasier but a bit slower is to take MARTA.  Take a Gold or Red line train North to Five Points Station. Transfer to a Blue line train East to Decatur Station. One way fare is $2.50.\n\n\n\n\nGetting to the Conference from…\n\n\n\nMidtown Atlanta (4.6 Miles away\, 15-20 minute drive)\n\n\n\n\nOn June 16th and 17th\, free shuttle service will be offered by LCH between the Hyatt and Emory Law School in the morning\, at lunchtime\, and at the end of the day.\n\n\n\nA ride-share costs about $15 before tip.\n\n\n\nMARTA’s #36 Bus runs from Midtown Station to the Law School every 40 minutes.\n\n\n\nGeorgia Tech and Emory operate a free shuttle every 90 minutes throughout the day that picks up at Midtown Station on its way to Emory (and drops off at Midtown Station on return trips to Tech). Drop off at Emory is at Clifton Rd. & Gatewood Rd.\, an 11 minute walk from the law school. Pick up at Emory is Woodruff Circle\, a 7-minute walk from the law school.\n\n\n\n\nEmory Area Hotels\n\n\n\n\nThe conference center is a twenty-minute walk to/from the law school. The University Inn is a one-minute walk to the law school.\n\n\n\nEmory’s free CCTMA shuttle provides regular free service connecting the Conference Center and the Law School.\n\n\n\n\nDecatur Square (2.5 miles away\, 10-minute drive)\n\n\n\n\nA rideshare typically costs about $10-12 before tip.\n\n\n\nMARTA’s #36 Bus runs from Decatur Station to the Law School every 40 minutes.\n\n\n\nEmory’s free CCTMA shuttle provides regular free service connecting Decatur Square and the Law School.

Williams\, University Distinguished Professor of Law and Humanities\, Northeastern University. \n\n\n\nWe are most grateful to Christina DeLucia and Mary Tartaglia\, research librarians at Quinnipiac University School of Law\, for updating our ASLCH bibliography.  The bibliography covers books and edited collections published by our 2020 members since 2011\, available here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nApplication Instructions\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApplications to the workshop should consist of a current curriculum vitae (5-page maximum)\, an abstract of a current project not exceeding 700 words\, as well as a short (5- page maximum) text relating to that project. This “text” could be a case\, literary work\, a time-line\, a photo\, a sound or video file\, or some other relevant text. The text you choose should be something that helps you reflect on the subject of your work and your methods of analysis. Please use your judgment and best guess in deciding how audio\, visual\, or audio-visual materials “translate” into pages of text.\n\n\n\nApplicants whose proposals are accepted will receive some support towards an extra night’s accommodation from ASLCH as well as some support (varying\, depending on distance traveled) towards the cost of transportation to the conference site. While those who participated in a previous workshop may re-apply and participate again\, should space and/or funds be limited\, we will prioritize new participants.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDEADLINES\n\n\n\nAll proposals are due by Friday November 15\, 2019 by midnight Eastern Standard Time. Please include the subject line: ASLCH Grad Workshop Application. Please name your file(s) using your lastname first\, e.g. “Miller_application” or “Miller_cv”. Please remind us if you applied for or participated in a previous workshop and\, if so\, which one(s). \n\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n    \n\nGraduate Workshop\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Annual Association for the Study of Law\, Culture\, and the Humanities Graduate Student Workshop will be held on Friday\, March 6\, 2020 (the day before the annual meeting begins). Applications are due November 15\, 2019. \n\n\n\nThe workshop is designed for graduate students who are undertaking research that cuts across law\, cultural studies\, literature\, philosophy\, legal studies\, anthropology\, political science\, and history\, among others. The workshop is designed to afford graduate students the opportunity to experience the LCH community in a smaller venue with more sustained contact with one another and some faculty. The workshop also provides graduate students with an opportunity to discuss their research projects in a small group setting in anticipation of such things as job talks and publication.
