SUMMARY:Call for Papers: De Jure: Jurnal Hukum dan Syar’iah\, June 2024
DESCRIPTION:From the journal: \nThe development of Islamic law in modern countries is an interesting study material for scholars and policymakers. Islamic law is believed to be able to build a civil society. De Jure: Jurnal Hukum dan Syar’iah aims to be an active forum to discuss new ideas about the development of Islamic law in Muslim or non-Muslim countries. This journal is not a forum for normative reflection on Islamic law but it focuses on the implementation\, adaptation\, compromise\, or absorption of Islamic law in the national law of a country based on the principles of democracy\, justice\, rule of law\, tolerance\, and peace building. \nDe Jure: Jurnal Hukum dan Syar’iah focuses on contemporary issues in the field of Islamic law in indonesia and muslim countries with gender\, political\, and human rights approaches. \nThis journal provides insight into the contemporary dynamics of Islamic law by focusing on the question of how Islamic law adapts to various interests so that it becomes state law. This journal focuses on what Muslims actually do in order to accommodate Islamic law in a modern legal state.  De Jure considers that Islamic law can be used as a basis or source for the formulation of modern state law today. \nArticles that make a more general theoretical or comparative contribution are preferable to those that focus narrowly on a particular society. Papers based on a single country or case should also address issues relevant to the implementation of Islamic law outside the country in question. \nDe Jure: Jurnal Hukum dan Syar’iah published by the Sharia Faculty of Universitas Islam Negeri Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang\,East Java\, Indonesia.  De Jure has been accredited (SINTA2) by The Ministry of Research Technology and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia (Decree of the Director General of Strengthening Research and Development Ministry of Research\, Technology and Higher Education No. 30/E/ KPT/2019). Since Volume 14 issue 2 2022\, the editors only accept and publish articles in English only. \nFor more information\, visit here.

SUMMARY:Call for Applications: Harvard Medieval Studies Undergraduate Research Fellows Program\, June 20\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:The Committee on Medieval Studies invites applications for its Undergraduate Research Fellows Program\, which offers qualified students in Harvard College the opportunity to work closely with scholars across the disciplines on research projects and initiatives. Unlike research assistants in most other departments\, Research Fellows are employed directly by the Committee on Medieval Studies\, and work with different faculty members throughout the year on a variety of short- and longer-term initiatives. This allows the Fellows the opportunity to develop relationships with an interdisciplinary group of scholars\, and to participate in a range of research tasks within the broad field of Medieval Studies. Fellows should expect to work a maximum of six hours each week during the 2024-25 academic year; a stipend of $1500 per semester will be paid to each Fellow. \nAll current second- and third-year students in any discipline whose work focuses on Medieval Studies are eligible to apply for the Fellows Program. In addition to a cover letter detailing their interest in the program and their academic background in Medieval Studies\, and a resumé indicating their research skills (e.g. database\, web design\, language knowledge\, training with manuscripts\, etc.)\, applicants also should arrange for a letter of recommendation to be submitted under separate cover from a faculty member\, attesting to their academic and research potential. \nCompleted applications may be sent to: Undergraduate Research Fellows\, Harvard University Committee on Medieval Studies\, Barker Center 120\, 12 Quincy Street\, Cambridge MA 02138. Electronic submissions (in PDF format) can be sent to Sean Gilsdorf (gilsdorf@fas.harvard.edu). All materials must be received by Friday\, 20 June 2024 for full consideration.

DESCRIPTION:Call for Papers: New Frontiers in Comparative Law: A Works in Progress Showcase\n2025 AALS Annual Meeting: Courage in Action \nThe Section on Comparative Law is pleased to announce a call for papers for the “New Frontiers in Comparative Law: A Works in Progress Showcase” program at the 2025 AALS Annual Meeting\, to be held in San Francisco\, CA\, in January 2025. The program will be chaired by Professor Elizabeth Inglesias\, University of Miami\, and is co-sponsored by the East Asia Law and Society\, the Latin American Law\, and the European Law Sections of the AALS. It will take place on Wednesday\, January 8\, from 2:40 pm until 4:10 pm.  \nThis program allows Comparative Law scholars to workshop a project in progress and receive feedback before submitting the work for publication. Each presenter will be assigned a senior Comparative law scholar as a designated reviewer. This is the panel’s official description: “The future of comparative law hinges on innovative scholarly ideas. This panel features new and established voices presenting their ongoing research projects. Join these experts for a glimpse into the cutting-edge of comparative law\, as they share their works-in-progress and engage in a stimulating discussion about the evolving landscape of comparative law.” \nTo participate\, scholars must be full-time faculty members\, including full-time visiting assistant professors or fellows\, at AALS member schools. Papers that have been posted on scholarship networks such as SSRN\, but not yet published\, are eligible for consideration. \nPlease email Professor Irene Calboli at icalboli@law.tamu.edu or Irene.Calboli@gmail.com by Thursday\, August 1\, 2024\, to be considered for participation in the program.

Please attach an abstract or working draft of the project. \nIf your paper is selected for participation in the program\, you must submit a draft via email to the above address no later than Friday\, December 6\, 2024. This deadline will provide reviewers ample time to read drafts before the program. The draft submitted does not need to be completely polished or ready for law-review submission; reviewers welcome papers in earlier stages when the author can most benefit from feedback. \nSenior scholars interested in serving as reviewers\, please email Professor Calboli as soon as possible. \nPlease be aware that selected participants and reviewers must register for the AALS Annual Meeting. \nIrene Calboli (2024 Chair\, Comparative Law Section)

SUMMARY:Call for Papers (CFP): “Islamic Law and Social Movements\,” 2025 Annual Meeting of the Association of American Law Schools (AALS)\, September 9\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:Deadline for Submission: September 9\, 2024 \nPanel Sponsor: Islamic Law Section of the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) Panel Co-Sponsor: International Law Section of the AALS \nThe Islamic Law Section of the Association of American Law Schools (AALS)\, in co-sponsorship with the International Law Section\, invites submission of paper abstracts for a panel entitled Islamic Law and Social Movements at the AALS annual meeting in San Francisco in January 2025. \nThe panel will explore the relationship and interconnections between Islamic law and social movements in the past\, present\, or future. Islamic law often provides contested terrain upon which debates about social and legal issues and advocacy for change are forged. Narratives\, conceptions\, arguments\, debates\, and practices of “Islamic law” have played and continue to play diverse roles within social movements in both Muslim-majority and Muslim-minority contexts. The Section invites papers for this panel that examine the ways in which Islamic law is constructed\, imagined\, mobilized\, and debated by or within social movements; the role of Islamic law and discourse on Islamic law in social movements; the ways in which grievances\, rights\, and demands are framed through Islamic law; the ways in which Islamic law is deployed or negotiated in movement lawyering or in legal strategy; and the relationship between Islamic law and community formation\, identity formation\, or mobilization. Papers from a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to legal studies\, including law\, sociology\, anthropology\, politics\, and history\, are welcomed. The Section particularly encourages submissions focused on the 2025 conference theme\, “Courage in Action.” \nPaper abstracts of no more than 500 words should be sent to Dana Lee (dlee@law.uci.edu) no later than Monday\, September 9\, 2024. The Section welcomes submissions from academics at all levels: tenured\, pre-tenure\, non-tenure track\, fellows\, visiting assistant professors\, adjunct professors\, graduate students\, etc. You do not need to be based at a law school to submit a paper proposal. Note that presenters will be expected to pay the membership and registration fees to attend AALS (www.aals.org).

SUMMARY:ILSS: “Ādamiyyah: I am Therefore I have Rights” with Recep Senturk\, Program in Islamic Law
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, October 8\, 2024\, at 12:30-1:30PM US EST via Zoom\, Professor Recep Senturk (Hamad Bin Khalifa University) will present Ādamiyyah: I am Therefore I have Rights (Usul Academy Press\, 2025). This book explores the concept of Ādamiyya and Huqūq al-Ādamiyyīn in Islamic law and its implications in practice from the time of Prophet Muhammad\, His Predecessors\, the Umayyad and Abbasid periods\, Andalusia and the Islamic rule in India. Special attention is paid to how the concept of Ādamiyya was used in relation to non-Ahl al-Kitāb people such as Buddhists\, Hindus\, and Zoroastrians under Islamic rule. The book argues that the universalistic view of Islamic law based on the concept of Ādamiyya went into eclipse with the rise of nation states in the Muslim and it needs to be revived again. Registration is required.

SUMMARY:Fellowship: Thomas C. Grey Fellowship\, Stanford Law School\, 2025-2026
DESCRIPTION:Stanford Law School invites applications for the Thomas C. Grey Fellowship. Grey Fellows teach legal writing\, research\, and analysis to small sections of first-year students each quarter\, while writing their own scholarship in preparation for entering the market for teaching positions at law schools across the country. Over the last fifteen years\, we have had a near- perfect record in placing Fellows in tenure track faculty positions. We are committed to developing a diverse set of scholars and strongly encourage applications from individuals with a broad range of life experiences\, perspectives\, and backgrounds who would contribute to \nStanford Law School and the legal academia. \nPractice background and teaching. Applicants must have a J.D. and at least two years of law practice or clerkship experience in the US before starting the fellowship. Many Fellows have substantially more law practice experience. Fellows teach two courses\, both taught as simulations. In the fall\, Fellows teach Legal Writing\, a two-unit course in which thirty students write a persuasive brief. In the winter and spring\, Fellows teach Federal Litigation in a Global Context\, a course split into two 2-unit quarters that models pre-trial motion practice in a transnational lawsuit. Eighteen students write and argue two motions. Fellows give students written and in-person feedback on legal writing and oral argument. Fellows receive teacher training and instructional materials. Many Fellows go on to win teaching awards as law professors. \nMentorship. Faculty mentors help Fellows develop their scholarship and place favorably on the teaching market. Faculty on the Legal Research and Writing Committee advise Fellows on their research and match Fellows with faculty mentors in related fields. Fellows participate in: weekly workshops\, one with faculty\, another with other Fellows\, junior faculty\, and JD/PhDs; and the annual Grey Fellows Forum\, a spring gathering with our community of current and former Fellows who share feedback on works-in-progress and mentor Fellows preparing for the academic job market. Fellow jobtalk papers have been published at flagship law reviews\, including at Harvard\, Chicago\, Stanford\, NYU\, and Georgetown. And in the year Fellows go on the teaching market\, faculty members review FAR forms\, CVs\, and research agendas\, and moot job talks and interviews. \nSalary and appointment. The fellowship is full-time with an expected starting base pay of $85\,000. Fellows are also provided an annual budget for professional development and research\, such as attending conferences and hiring research assistants. The initial term of appointment is one year beginning in August. Fellows are expected\, on reappointment\, to serve a second and third year. Reappointments are granted on demonstrated excellence in teaching\, citizenship in the legal writing program and at the law school\, and progress on legal scholarship. \nApply by October 15. To apply\, please upload your application here. Contact Alicia Thesing\, Director of the Legal Research and Writing program\, at athesing@stanford.edu\, with any questions.
