Call for Papers: 26th International Roundtable for the Semiotics of Law (IRSL), 6–10 July 2026
Theme: “Textiles of Truth: Law, Language, and the Semiotics of Environmental Style”
Venue- Lille University, Faculty of Law –
Date-6–10 July 2026
In an age where environmental degradation, climate change, and hyper-consumerism converge with fast-paced global trade and digital communication, the language of law must evolve to meet new ethical, ecological, and cultural challenges. From courtroom rulings to eco-labels, from fast fashion to forest protection, how we speak, legislate, and translate ideas of sustainability and responsibility is not neutral—it is deeply semiotic, symbolic, and political.
We especially encourage interdisciplinary contributions that rethink the role of law in shaping ethical consumption, environmental justice, and interspecies futures.
Deadline: 15 March 2026
