The Call for Papers (CFP) for Volume 17, Issue 2 of the journal “Trade, Law and Development” is now open, inviting submissions that delve into the intricate relationship between international trade and multifaceted legal frameworks. As global trade dynamics continue to evolve, understanding the intersection of law and commerce becomes increasingly pertinent for legal professionals and policymakers alike. The current volume seeks to address these complexities by exploring new perspectives and contemporary issues in the realm of global trade law.
This issue of the journal particularly encourages scholarship on the legal and developmental aspects of international trade, encompassing topics such as trade compliance, regional trade agreements, and the broader implications of trade laws on sustainable development. Submissions may also consider the role of international organizations, such as the World Trade Organization, in shaping trade policies and dispute resolutions. More information on the themes and submission guidelines can be found on the European Law Blog.
Additionally, this CFP arrives at a time when the global trading system faces unprecedented challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed vulnerabilities within supply chains, prompting a reassessment of current trade agreements and fostering discussions around resilience and adaptability.
