Emory University School of Law seeks submissions for a workshop on Legal Migrations, Vulnerability, and Resilience, to be held 9-10 December in Atlanta, Georgia, US. Participation is welcome from scholars in multiple disciplines including law, the social sciences, and humanities. Papers should address the response to human and institutional vulnerability occasioned by processes of migration. Papers are invited to examine social experience as well as legal formalities, and those which engage vulnerability theory as a central tool of analysis are most warmly welcomed.
