Adam Podgòrecki Prize >>> 2017
PODGÒRECKI PRIZE 2017:
CALL FOR NOMINATIONS The ISA RCSL Jury Committee for the Podgòrecki Prize calls for nominations for the Senior Prize, which will be awarded in 2017 to a socio-legal scholar for their outstanding lifetime contribution to socio-legal scholarship and research. Previous winners of this prize have been: 2015: André-Jean Arnaud (France), 2013: Volkmar Gessner (Germany) and Terence Halliday (USA), 2011: David Nelken (Italy), 2009: Boaventura de Sousa Santos (Portugal), 2007: Richard Abel (USA) and Vincenzo Ferrari (Italy), 2005: Erhard Blankenburg (The Netherlands). The 2017 Committee notes that all the previous winners of this award have been men. Although our decision will be based strictly on the merits of the candidates, and the case presented in nominating them, we would particularly welcome the opportunity to consider nominations on behalf of some of the outstanding women scholars in our field. Nominations require the support of at least two members of the RCSL, and should include the candidate’s CV and a brief letter of support from each nominator. It is desirable, but not essential, that nominees are members of RCSL. Previous nominees may be re-nominated in this 2017 round, with updated letters and CVs. The Jury does not have access to previous correspondence or reviews. Publications can be in any language. For works in languages other than those familiar to the Prize Committee, the nominations should give some indication of the value of the work and provide selected translations. To consider works in less well-known languages, the Jury Committee can co-opt and consult other RCSL members. Nominations should be sent to the Chair of the
jury, The prize will be awarded at the International Law and Society meeting, June 20-23, 2017, jointly sponsored by the Law and Society Association and the Research Committee on the Sociology of Law, in partnership with the Socio-Legal Studies Association, the Japanese Association of the Sociology of Law, and the Canadian Law and Society Association. The 2017 Prize Jury is composed of Prof. Terence Halliday (US), Prof. José Ramon Bengoetxea (Spain), and Prof. Malgorzata Fuszara (Poland).
