The Editors now invite abstracts for the conference. Please submit an abstract if you would like to make a presentation at the conference and you are willing to produce a final paper that you will submit for publication in the Journal. Abstracts should be up to 500 words in length and should clearly state the name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s). They can be on any subject matter that falls within the scope of the Journal, and can be offered by people at any stage of their career, including postgraduate students. The subsequent article should be submitted to the Journal. Publication in the Journal will be subject to the usual system of refereeing by two experts in the field. The Conference will comprise a mixture of plenary (Friday) and parallel panel sessions (Thursday afternoon and Saturday morning). Please indicate on the abstract whether you are willing to present in either session, or are only willing to do so in one or the other. A willingness to be flexible maximises our ability to select your paper. Please send your abstract to PILconf15@law.cam.ac.uk by Friday, 20 February 2015.
