Call for Papers - Intellectual Property
Pace Law Review

2011 - 2012

The editors of the Pace Law Review invite proposals from scholars, researchers, practitioners, and professionals for contributions to an issue slated for publication in the Spring of 2012. This issue will focus on emerging issues in intellectual property. We hope to publish articles that examine intellectual property from all angles, including issues pertaining to grey market goods, privacy and media rights, and biotechnology. If you have an article idea that fits within the intellectual property realm more broadly than described above, we encourage you to submit your proposal for consideration, as we are interested in scholarly discourse and are not strictly confined to the above-mentioned topics.

PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: Please submit proposals of no more than 500 words by attachment to pacelawreview@law.pace.edu by December 2, 2011. If you already have a completed article or an article in progress, you may submit the piece with an abstract of no more than 500 words describing the work. We welcome proposals for articles, essays, and book reviews. All proposals should include the author's name, title, institutional affiliation, contact information, and should concern issues related to the subject matter described above. Book review proposals should also include (a) the title and publication date of the book proposed for review; (b) a description of the importance of the book to the general topic; and (c) any other information relevant to the book or proposed review (e.g. the reviewer's expertise or any relationship with the author). Authors are also welcome, but not required, to submit a CV. We expect to make publication offers by December 16, 2011. Completed manuscripts of scholarly articles and book reviews will be due January 27, 2012.
