SEAL News: November 19, 2008 – Call for Talk Proposals
We are now soliciting talk proposals for the Tenth SEAL Scholarship Conference, which is scheduled for April 16-18, 2009, at the Vanderbilt University Law School. Renowned primatologist Frans De Waal is the Keynote speaker. You will find the format for the proposal at the end of this message. Please submit your proposal by January 20, 2009 to stake@indiana.edu.
For the Proposed Abstract: Please describe your talk in no more than three sentences. If the talk is accepted, the description may appear as an abstract on the Conference Program. We require that presenters draw a clear connection between evolutionary science and law.
For the Proposed Legal Question, please provide a one-sentence question that your talk will address. The legal question should make explicit connection between evolutionary science and law. (For example: “How might evolutionary analysis and human behavioral biology help us to explain and predict some of the larger patterns in legal systems?”) The legal question for accepted talks will be published in the conference program.
Past speakers have been afforded 15-20 minutes for a brief presentation, followed by 15-10 minutes for questions and replies.
Please send the proposals to stake@indiana.edu , and I will circulate them to the selection committee.
We will be sending information about conference registration and accommodations in a future emailing.
Thank you, and have a wonderful fall!
Jeffrey E. Stake President, SEAL
