Great SAILS convo @asilorg Int'l Law & Social Sciences Conf @NorthwesternLaw. 👏3 terrific scholars discussed how they engage w/interdisciplinary work in IL: @ElenaChachko @MatthewErie Joe Conti @UWSoc. Highlights from sociology, anthropology, poly sci. Moderated by @Claussen_K.
Looks like a great day for a @SAILS_Intl_Law paper workshop!
coursesites.georgetown.domai…
Papers on #internationallaw teaching, IL textbooks w/o int'l courts, transnational law journals, when int'l judges are scholars, IL commentaries, who teaches and attends @HagueAcademy ...
1/2
plus still more on emotions in IL scholarship, the empirical turn in IL scholarship, "who" is the Security Council, int'l law pubs in times of crisis, & the Int'l Law Commission's use of scholarship.
Should be a great day w/a great group of scholars! @EUI_EU @GeorgetownLaw 2/2
This great paper is also in the 1st SAILS symposium.

Fascinating! Some of the SAILS authors tackle some issues this comment flags.
E.g., @Claussen_K tracks languages for 594 IL journals (change over time interesting) as well as OA #s
Freya Baetens @OxfordLawFac has a paper on yearbooks
+ more on regional & transnational journals
