The International Law and Palestine Blog – Call for Contributions
Law for Palestine’s International Law and Palestine Blog provides a forum for addressing some of the most pressing questions in international law relating to Palestine. Through critical writing, dialogue, and collaboration with scholars, practitioners, and communities affected by international law -as well as those committed to its defence- the Blog seeks to interrogate and reshape prevailing legal discourses on Palestine. It serves as a space for theoretically informed and critically engaged analysis of the international legal framework, with particular attention to its application, limitations, and possibilities in the Palestinian context
Law for Palestine’s research agenda for 2026 centres on the following thematic areas: the denial of Palestinian self-determination and its manifestations; emancipatory readings of international law; lessons from the history of international law and settler colonialism; third State responsibility; the future of the international legal system in light of genocide; and pathways to accountability.
We welcome contributions from legal practitioners, academics and experts, as well as emerging scholars (including LLM and PhD candidates), particularly on issues engaging with recent developments in international law. Submissions from Palestinian scholars, practitioners and students are especially encouraged. Additional support -such as preliminary discussions and enhanced editorial feedback- can be provided to early-career scholars and students.
