The Cambridge International Law Journal (‘CILJ’) is pleased to invite submissions of abstracts to be considered for presentations at the 15th Annual Conference of the CILJ.
The Conference will take place at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge, on 23–24 April 2026.
The topic of the Conference is ‘Reimagining International Law: Critical, Regional, and Trans-Disciplinary Perspectives.’ Contributors are encouraged to consider how international law operates not in isolation but within social, political, and economic structures; how its institutions and doctrines reflect power dynamics; and how critical, regional, and trans-disciplinary modes of legal imagination might chart alternative, better futures.
We invite all interested scholars to submit an abstract between 250 and 300 words via the link below by 23:59 GMT on 31 December 2025. We welcome submissions from PhD students, early career researchers, and established academics, and practitioners. Selected papers will be presented at the Conference, and all conference presenters will have the opportunity to submit their papers for consideration for publication in Volume 15(2) of the CILJ.
