The International Society of Public Law (ICON·S) has established a Committee on “New Directions in Scholarship”. Its main objective is to facilitate the dissemination of works that have advanced the knowledge of Public Law and to launch inclusive initiatives in public law research.
Following the success of ICON·S Live, the Committee is already organizing a series of monthly virtual events dedicated to new books in public law titled “New Scholarship Showcase”.
The Committee invites book proposals to be considered for the “New Scholarship Showcase” book discussion panels. We welcome books from scholars of all ranks around the world, on any topic in Public Law widely conceived especially in public international and administrative law.
We are especially committed to advance diversity and inclusiveness. We particularly welcome book proposal from early-career scholars and from underrepresented groups in academia, especially people of color and women.
