Every three years or so, the Law and Society Association holds a joint meeting with an International Socio-Legal Association and has its annual meeting oversees. This year, the meeting will be held in Berlin, Germany on July 25 -28, 2007. The deadline for submitting proposals is this Friday, January 12, 2007.
This year’s meeting co-sponsors also include the Socio-Legal Studies Association (UK), the Japanese Association of Sociology of Law, the Vereinigung für Rechtssoziologie, and the Sociology of Law Section of the German Sociological Association. It promises to be one of the larger LSA meetings ever, with the broad theme of, Law and Society in the 21st Century: Transformations, Resistances, Futures, inviting scholars from around the world “to reflect on the law and society in the 21st century. The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 is commonly evoked as the symbolic beginning of the 21st century, so it is fitting that we are holding this meeting in Berlin.” The call for participation can found here. I recommend submitting abstracts via research networks or together with other speakers to form a non-random, more cohesive panel.

Once you are in Berlin for Law & Society you could go to Cracow on August 1 for the IVR legal philosophy Congress.
