A call for papers

The Syracuse Law and Civic Engagement forum ("SLACE") is looking for authors for its 2015-2016 journal edition, focusing on election law, campaign finance reform, voting rights, and political law.

SLACE is an interdisciplinary journal and blog operated between the Syracuse University College of Law, S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications and Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.  SLACE focuses on the intersection between law, policy and media. SLACE advances the civic dialogue and recognizes that the law is a truly interdisciplinary institution. Our 2015-2016 edition is broadly focused on political law, campaign finance, voting rights, and election law. SLACE is not a conventional law journal and is focused on pushing the conversation beyond the bounds of the law-centric model. This allows our authors great flexibility and creativity in their writing. 

SLACE is seeking authors for its upcoming edition to be submitted for publication by December 2015-January 2016. We are asking that authors submit articles in the range of 20-35 pages. The topics are purposely broad and allow authors to address issues they find relevant within the realm of political law,  campaign finance law, voting rights, and election reform. Due to the upcoming election and sharp criticisms of the campaign finance system by many, including notable presidential candidates, we find these topics have garnered considerable attention.  

If anyone would be interested in writing for us, please let us know at your earliest convenience. Alternatively, if you have suggestions for other authors, please feel free to forward them this email or provide their contact information via the email address listed below. If any potential author would like to learn more about SLACE or its upcoming edition, do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your time!
