CALL FOR PAPERS FOR THE 2014 MARCO BIAGI AWARD

Description

The International Association of Labour Law Journals announces a Call for Papers for the 2014 Marco Biagi Award. The award is named in honor of a distinguished labour lawyer, Marco Biagi, victim of terrorism because of his commitment to civil rights, and one of the founders of the Association.

The Call requests papers concerning comparative and/or international labour or employment law and employment relations, broadly conceived. Research of an empirical nature within the Call’s purview is most welcome. Papers may be submitted preferably in English, but papers in French, or Spanish will also be accepted. The final version should not significantly exceed 50,000 characters which is about twenty printed pages.


Eligibility

The Call is addressed to doctoral students, advanced professional students, and academic researchers in the early stage of their careers.


Prize

Papers accepted by the jury will be assured publication in a member journal. The author or authors of the papers selected by the jury will be invited to present the work at the Association’s 2014 meeting in Dublin. Efforts are being undertaken to attach an honorarium and travel expenses for the presentation of the paper. Until that effort bears fruit, however, the Association hopes that home institutional funds would be available to support the researcher’s presentation.


Deadline: 30 April 2014
