Call for Papers: Law, Culture, and Humanities 29th Annual Conference, University of California, Berkeley, May 27-28, 2027
Submission Guidelines
We encourage the submission of fully constituted panels, as well as panels that reimagine or experiment with models for academic presentation, including for example roundtables, “author meets reader” sessions (which may include multiple books and their authors in conversation), works-in-progress sessions, workshop-format sessions that engage participants in shared thinking or other productive co-creation, multi-panel streams, etc. Panels should include at least three, ideally four, papers/presenters. Please specify a title and designate a chair for all panel proposals (the panel chair may also be a panel presenter). It is not necessary to write an abstract or proposal for the panel itself. However, all individual proposals should include a title and abstract of no more than 250 words.
For pre-constituted panels, roundtables, or streams, all participants must complete an individual submission on the registration site. Please ensure that each individual participant includes the name of the panel and the chair in their individual submission. We also ask that registrants identify two to three keywords to help us align sessions with each other.
Mode
The twenty-ninth annual conference will emphasize the LCH tradition of in-person conversation. While we encourage participants to join us in Berkeley, we recognize that in-person attendance may be prohibitive for some. To that end, we will also accept the submission of virtual panels and papers.
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.
