Call for Papers on "The Intersection Between Litigation and International Commercial Arbitration"

Call for Papers on "The Intersection Between Litigation and International Commercial Arbitration":

Gary Born will give the keynote address at a symposium entitled “Border Skirmishes:  The Intersection Between Litigation and International Commercial Arbitration,” to be convened at the University of Missouri School of Law on October 21, 2011.  A works-in-progress conference and a student writing competition is being organized in association with this event, and the University of Missouri School of Law is issuing a call for papers and proposals.  

The symposium brings speakers from Canada, Austria, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States together to discuss complex issues relating to international dispute resolution.  Submissions for the works-in-progress conference and student writing competition should therefore bear some relationship to international commercial arbitration, transnational litigation or the connection between the two.

More information about the works-in-progress conference, the student writing competition and the submission process is available at the symposium website, located at:  http://www.law.missouri.edu/csdr/symposium/2011/.  Submissions and questions should be directed to Professor S.I. Strong at strongsi@missouri.edu.  Registration for the symposium itself will open shortly.
