Detroit Mercy Law Review seeks proposals for annual symposium 

University of Detroit Mercy Law Review is accepting submissions for the annual symposium, Fallout: The Legal Impact of the 2022 Russian Invasion of Ukraine, on Friday, March 3, 2023, in Detroit, Michigan.

The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine is a tragic event that has reverberated across the world. Fallout from it impacts a broad variety of legal specialties. While some of these impacts are yet to be fully realized, it is important to begin discussion and analysis of them.

Detroit Mercy Law Review invites academics, scholars, practitioners, and other stakeholders to submit proposals for panel presentation and potential publication on topics involving the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. These may include, but are not limited to, the following: international law, evasion of sanctions using cryptocurrency, legal aspects relating to European reliance on Russian oil, cyberterrorism, and immigration.

Proposals should be approximately 250–500 words, double-spaced, and should detail the proposed topic and presentation. Proposals must be submitted no later than 5 PM EST Friday, November 4, 2022, by email to Bradley Gray, Symposium Director, at lawreview@udmercy.edu. In your e-mail, please indicate whether your proposal is for a presentation only or if you plan to submit an article based on your presentation for potential publication in the Detroit Mercy Law Review. Also, please include a current CV or resume. 

 Decisions will be emailed on or before Tuesday, November 8, 2022. The final completed manuscripts must be submitted by Friday, March 10, 2023, for editing to commence by the Law Review staff.
