To encourage and recognize excellent legal scholarship and to broaden participation by new law teachers in the Annual Meeting program, the Association sponsored its twenty-sixth annual Call for Scholarly Papers. The AALS Scholarly Papers competition is open to full-time law teachers at an AALS member or fee-paid school for five years or less on July 1, 2010 The winners, who will present and discuss their papers, were chosen by a panel of ten distinguished law scholars.
