linnaeus university Conference

Call for Papers – Nordic Conference on Legal Method 2025

The Department of Law at Linnaeus University is delighted to host the Nordic Conference on Legal Methods between 14 May 2025 and 16 May 2025 at campus Kalmar, Sweden.

Legal methods have been discussed for a long time and are more relevant than ever. How do we deal with HRL, and with perspectives of gender and/or ethnicity? What about internal rules and contractual agreements within multinational companies? How do we address climate changes and AI, what is the rule of law and how deal with it? And globalization together with Migration, shared meetings with other legal traditions and cultures?

The aim of the Nordic Conference on Legal Method is to explore the concept of legal method, which entails the intricate process of identifying the appropriate legal principles to be applied to a given set of facts. What has traditionally been seen as a straightforward task, both history, theoretical analysis, and a discussion about values have shown that legal methods are far more complex than simply making decisions about how the law should be interpreted.

The conference commences by exploring trends in legal methodology in the Nordic countries, examining their evolution, identifying potential similarities, and subsequently exploring any differences. It also recognises the significant interplay between legal methodology and, more expansively, the interpretation of law within specific perspectives, such as place, time, space, and context.

Additionally, the conference is open to explore the concept of legal methodology across different fields of law, as well as understanding the multidisciplinary, transdisciplinary, and intradisciplinary boundary implications in other disciplines, with the intention of expanding the understanding of the implications of legal methodology.

This approach aspires to uncover shared patterns in these areas, revealing a more contemporary and forward-thinking approach to the role of law in our society, which should increasingly conform into a model of adherence to the rule of law as a universal principle, serving as the final benchmark for upholding democratic values.

We invite scholars and professionals to participate in the current and future debate inspired by, among other issues (listed alphabetically):

Case-study.
Comparative.
Critical.
Doctrinal/dogmatic.
Empirical.
Ethnographic.
Experimental.
Historical.
In context.
Interdisciplinary.
Normative.
Qualitative.
Quantitative.
Socio-legal.
Transdisciplinary

Other methods to be analysed that are not listed above are, of course, very welcome. Note too that submissions are welcome that engage in a wholistic view of just one single method, or one-or-more methods.

Submissions from persons of all academic positions are welcome. Those that are at an earlier stage of their research endeavours, such as those at Ph.D./doctoral level, are particularly welcome.’

Keynote speakers

Åsa Gunnarsson (Umeå University)
Johanna Niemi (University of Helsinki)

Call for Papers: 2025 Law and Development Conference

“Law and Economic Development”

Honolulu, Hawai‘i, December 5-6, 2025

The Law and Development Institute (www.lawanddevelopment.net) and the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa, William S. Richardson School of Law will co-host the 2025 Law and Development Conference.

Law has a significant impact on economic development, which in turn enhances growth, industrial competitiveness, and sustainability. But there is no consensus on the optimal set of laws and legal institutions to promote economic development and channel it toward positive impacts. In particular, there is a range of views on whether government regulations hinder or facilitate development, and what types of interventions are likely to be effective. The conference will explore how both international and domestic legal frameworks contribute to development, with a particular emphasis on sustainability concerns. The following sub-topics will be examined:

- Sustainable Development, Law, and Environmental Protection
- Law and Industrial Diversification
- Trade Law and Development
- International Investment Law and Development
- Property Law and Sustainability
- Rising Issues in Law and Development

We ask all interested speakers to submit one-page paper abstracts by May 1, 2025. (Please indicate the relevant sub-topic in your submission.) We expect abstracts, papers, and presentations in the English language.

Important Deadlines

- Abstract Submission: May 1, 2025
- Notification of Acceptance: June 1, 2025
- Final Selection of Speakers: June 15, 2025
- Full Papers Due: November 1, 2025

Please note that all conference papers will be uploaded on the conference website and will be accessible by the general public (with the attachment of appropriate copyright notice).

Selected papers will be published in a Law and Development Review Special Issue in 2026.

We are pleased to announce a call for papers for Legal Personhood in Private Law,

edited by Christopher Essert (Toronto), Eva Micheler (LSE), and Paul Miller (Notre Dame). Legal Personhood in Private Law aims to examine questions concerning the nature of legal personhood in private law.

Questions to be addressed include: the concept of legal personhood as such; the relationship between private and public law in attributions of personhood and/or delineation of legal concept(s) of personhood; the kind(s) and salient characteristics of individuals and groups treated as legal persons in private law; hard cases in the attribution of legal personhood (e.g., liminal personhood); the doctrinal implications of, and wider functional significance held by, legal personhood in systems of private law; differences between civil and common law renderings of legal personhood; and the relationship between legal concept(s) of personhood and moral, theological, and/or cultural concepts of personhood.

The volume will be composed primarily of solicited contributions, but we seek to include an additional two contributions through this call for papers. Submissions should be a maximum of 12,000 words, inclusive of all text and footnotes. The submission should be accompanied by an abstract indicating how the paper fits into the themes identified above.

The deadline for submission is January 31, 2025.

Scholars at any stage, including graduate students, and those working in disciplines beyond private law theory, are encouraged to submit.

Authors whose papers are selected will be invited to present their papers at a conference to be held at Notre Dame's Global Gateway Campus in Rome, Italy on November 6, 7, and 8, 2025. The Notre Dame Program on Private Law will arrange and pay for reasonable travel expenses, including 4 nights of hotel accommodations in Rome.

To submit a paper for consideration, please email it to Christopher Essert (chris.essert@utoronto.ca), Eva Micheler (e.micheler@lse.ac.uk), and Paul Miller (paul.miller@nd.edu).

RECONSTRUCTING INTERNATIONAL LAW

20th Annual Conference of the European Society of International Law Freie Universität Berlin,

11-13 September 2025

Call for Papers

The European Society of International Law invites abstracts for papers and proposals for panels curated by Interest Groups for its upcoming 20th Annual Conference. I. THE GENERAL THEME For the last decade, international law has gone through a period of turbulence. In response, it is time to move beyond crisis narratives and adopt a forward-looking approach. For such an undertaking, the year 2025 offers an appropriate context. It will mark the 80th birthday of the United Nations, the institutional centre of the international legal order. At the same time, 2025 is just five years away from 2030 when the future direction of the current blueprint for global social order, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), will need to be decided. The theme of “reconstructing international law” will be brought to life on various levels:

• Institutional: Reconstruction will be a pressing issue on a practical level. The collective security system of the United Nations has had limited success in realizing its purpose in the war of aggression against Ukraine, the ongoing war in Gaza as well as in many other contexts. Reconstructing the authority of the UN’s institutional structure will require creative thinking on the interplay of UN organs and the role of international law. Challenges of institutional reconstruction are not confined to the UN but also invite us to rethink institutional arrangements of other international organisations, including the WTO, the WHO, and the EU as well as their relationship with more informal governance arrangements.

• Normative: The SDGs have contributed to changing the understanding of what development requires, but their true potential of transforming our world in the Global South and beyond remains unrealized. Reconstructing the promise of international development without replicating earlier mistakes and without giving in to powerful new actors with wide-ranging conceptions for global development will require thinking about the role of international law in realizing a just future for the world’s population.

The conference will offer a venue to critically accompany as well as support other political processes leading to a new blueprint for development in 2030. • Historical: How has international law fared after past major systemic crises? At various moments in the history of international law, it was necessary to embrace a new form of 2 international law. What can we learn from institutional and normative projects of (re-) constructing “new” international law in the past?

• Theoretical: Reconstructing international law cannot mean a return to outdated progress narratives. The insights from Critical Legal Studies and Third World Approaches cannot and should not be unlearnt. This implies that the authority and legitimacy of international law need to be reconstructed in a manner as inclusive as possible and with input from a wide variety of theoretical approaches. The theme of “Reconstructing International Law” offers a framework for creatively thinking ahead in institutional, normative, historical, and theoretical terms but also across the various legal regimes in international law. It also requires a dialogue with academics from other disciplines such as political science, history, and sociology.

The conference is organized by Freie Universität Berlin (Prof. Dr. Helmut Aust and Prof. Dr. Heike Krieger) on behalf of the European Society of International Law.

• The deadline for submission of abstracts is 31 January 2025.

• Successful applicants will be informed no later than 31 March 2025.

• Deadline for joining ESIL (applicable for non-members) is 30 April 2025.

• The deadline for submission of full papers is 1 July 2025.

• The conference runs from 11-13 September 2025.

• The deadline for (optional) submission of final papers (to be included in the ESIL Paper Series and/ or a future conference publication) is 1 November 2025.

After the conference, ESIL provides the opportunity to publish papers in the ESIL Proceedings (ESIL Paper Series) and also plans to publish selected outstanding papers in a volume of the ESIL Book Series (published by OUP). Further details about how to submit papers for publication will be provided to all speakers immediately after the conference.

All selected speakers must register for the conference and will be eligible for a reduced conference registration fee. In addition to the reduced fee, early registration after acceptance of the paper will also result in a lower early bird fee. A limited number of travel grants and carers’ grants are available to ESIL members to encourage and facilitate attendance at ESIL events. Application details for these grants can be found on the ESIL website. In order to be eligible for a grant, me

The Venice Commission 1990-2025
Taking stock of 35 years for democracy through law

Milan, Bocconi University, 15-16 May 2025

Established through Resolution (90)6 of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe “on a Partial Agreement Establishing the European Commission for Democracy through Law” on 10 May 1990, the Commission for Democracy through Law (‘Venice Commission’) has constantly grown in importance and influence in the course of its 35 years of activity. While in the Nineties its main task was to support the constitution building processes during the democratic transition in Central and Eastern European countries, in recent years the Venice Commission has been confronted with a wide variety of constitutional issues from all over Europe. Furthermore, its impact has significantly expanded beyond Europe, with 15 non-Council of Europe States among its members and cooperation programs in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Having delivered an impressive amount of opinions and studies covering all areas of comparative constitutional law, the Venice Commission is nowadays a leading and influential voice in Europe on all matters pertaining to democracy, human rights and the rule of law.

On the occasion of the 35 th anniversary of its establishment, the Department of Legal Studies of Bocconi University in Milan and the Venice Commission convene a 2-days international conference – “The Venice Commission 1990-2025. Taking stock of 35 years for democracy through law” – to encourage the scientific debate on the contribution of the Venice Commission to the development of common constitutional standards. The conference aims at being an occasion of dialogue and exchange between legal scholarship and the Venice Commission and its Secretariat on current and future challenges for the Commission. Legal scholars at all stages of their professional career and from all jurisdictions are invited to submit a proposal focusing on the following topics (non-exhaustive list):

The history of the Venice Commission, its authority-building process, its current challenges;
The Commission’s institutional setting (composition, selection of members, legal basis, types of documents adopted, etc.);
The Commission’s ways of working (dialogue with the domestic stakeholders, stewardship, cooperative approach, etc.);
Effects and impact of its opinions and studies (quotations by domestic and international courts, impact on domestic legislative processes, influence on international standard setting, etc.);
Examination of specific opinions and reports, either on a particular topic (e.g. constitutional adjudication, election laws, amnesty laws, etc.) or on a particular State, including their impact on the ground;
The Commission’s interaction with national or international authorities (national Parliaments, Governments and Courts, Ombudsman institutions, international organizations, the ECtHR, etc.);
The cooperation with the European Union and the increasing role of the Venice Commission in the assessment of the conditionality requirements for candidate countries to the EU as well as Member States.

Participants are requested to send an abstract of no more than 4.000 characters (including spaces), by 31 January 2025, via email to: conference2025.venicecommission@unibocconi.it using as email subject “The Venice Commission 1990-2025”.

The organizing committee will select the papers and notify the participants by 15 February 2025. Successful applicants will be invited to present their papers at the conference and debate with one or two discussants, including former and current members of the Venice Commission.

The conference proceedings will be published, subject to peer review, either in a special issue of an international law journal, or in an edited book.

The organizing Committee: Marta Cartabia (Bocconi University and Venice Commission), Simona Granata-Menghini (Venice Commission), Davide Paris (Bocconi University).

JLMI

JLMI - Call for papers - Issue no. 2/2025

This Call for Papers of the Journal of Law, Market & Innovation (JLMI) concerns the second issue to be published at the end of July 2025 and is devoted to Compliance & Enforcement Technologies. This issue will be edited by the Editors-in-Chief of the JLMI (Riccardo de Caria and Cristina Poncibò), along with Antonio Davola (University of Bari Aldo Moro and JLMI Editorial Board member) as guest co-editor. You can find the call with all the details at the following link:

Compliance & Enforcement Technologies

The Call invites contributions on the subject of “Compliance & Enforcement Technologies”, exploring the cutting-edge digital tools and systems designed at ensuring compliance and tackling persistent enforcement challenges in the EU’s regulatory framework. This special issue invites scholarly contributions examining the role of emerging technologies in bridging the compliance and enforcement gaps, particularly within the EU Digital Acquis.

The concept of compliance & enforcement technologies covers a wide range of digital tools that help at promoting ex-ante compliance with legal frameworks and regulations and advancing ex-post enforcement. These technologies often utilize automation, AI, and data analytics to bridge enforcement gaps across different jurisdictions, particularly in complex regulatory frameworks like the EU Digital Acquis.

Key regulations such as the Digital Services Act (DSA), the Data Act, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the AI Act, and EU consumer law have been expanding Eu’s digital governance landscape, whose consistent and effective compliance across Member States and enforcement thus becomes a more and more pressing issue.

One prominent example is Claudette, an AI-based tool developed at the European University Institute (EUI). Claudette is designed to automatically analyse and assess the compliance of online terms and conditions with EU consumer law, particularly identifying unfair clauses or practices, or the compliance with the GDPR. By scanning websites and flagging potential violations, Claudette supports professionals and platforms to comply and regulators and consumer protection agencies to enforce the EU Digital Acquis by streamlining the monitoring of widespread digital compliance challenges.

Other examples of these technologies include automated compliance monitoring systems that utilise AI to identify non-compliance in real time. These systems scan online content and transactions, detecting potential breaches of the Digital Services Act (DSA) or GDPR, particularly regarding illegal content, privacy violations, or misleading advertising.

Topics of interest also include the integration of DLTs and blockchain technology to enhance transparency and traceability in areas such as data governance and content moderation, and the use of smart contracts to automate compliance and enforcement of digital agreements and regulatory penalties.

We welcome theoretical, empirical, critical and case study-based approaches that provide a deeper understanding of the said technologies, their practical applications, and the challenges surrounding their adoption. Contributions from a variety of disciplines, including law, computer science, economics, and public policy, are encouraged to foster a rich, interdisciplinary dialogue on the future of EU law enforcement. The Editorial Board will select articles based on the quality of research and writing, diversity, and relevance of topic. The novelty of the academic contribution is also an essential requirement.

Prospective articles should be submitted in the form of abstracts (around 800 words) or draft articles (see below) to submissions.jlmi@iuse.it by 30 November 2024. Perspective authors will be notified by 10 December 2024. Final articles shall be delivered by 10 March 2025 and should conform to the journal style guide that is based on OSCOLA.

Typically, the JLMI accepts contributions within the range of 10.000 to 15.000 words, including footnotes, but both shorter and longer articles will be considered. Submitted articles will undergo a rigorous double-blind peer-review process. Prior to submission, perspective authors are invited to check the Authors’ guidelines (also with regard to simultaneous submission to other journals) and the JLMI Code of Ethics. For further information, or for consultation on a potential submission, you can contact us by email at editors.jlmi@iuse.it.

JLMI is featured in the Database of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and will soon be indexed
in Scopus and Heinonline.

Sustainability is (Still) Possible!

Governing Market Actors for a Safe and Just Space

The Steering Committee for the SMART Network is seeking papers for its symposium in Turin on 18 and 19 September 2025. The symposium aims to revitalise the SMART Network by reestablishing connections between existing members and welcoming new friends and colleagues interested in sustainability-focused research.

Call for papers deadline: 1 April 2025

The EU-funded project SMART (Sustainable Market Actors for Responsible Trade, 2016-2020) sought to identify the factors that would facilitate the contribution of businesses and other market actors to sustainability. Drawing on SMART’s framework, this call understands sustainability as securing social foundations for humanity everywhere, now and in the future, while mitigating pressures on planetary boundaries. In short, it is about ensuring a safe and just space for humans and other living creatures. Despite business-as-usual driving humanity toward an unsustainable future, we, the Steering Committee of the SMART Network continue to believe in SMART’s mission statement that sustainability is possible.

At its conclusion in February 2020, the SMART project publishedreform proposals which covered three main strands: Bussiness,Finance and Products. These proposals encompassed trade and investment law, business law, company law and accounting law, financial market law and banking, public procurement, and circular economy law. In the intervening years, these proposals have informed legal reforms and provided a foundation for a new range of research projects and publications. It is now time to take stock, look back at the work, reform proposals and legacy of the SMART project and look forward to what needs to be done and how it can be achieved.

A wide variety of areas can be covered, including the following:

Governance of business, including global value chains, for sustainability
Sustainable finance and banking
Corporate sustainability due diligence
The evolution of accounting and sustainability reporting
Circular economy and product regulation
Public procurement for sustainability
International trade and investment
Litigation for sustainability

Abstracts of 500 words should be submitted via this online form before 1 April 2025. Responses will be provided by 30 April. While the symposium will run in a hybrid format, preference will be given to papers for in-person delivery.

In advance of the symposium, selected participants will be asked to develop their abstract into a blog for possible publication in Blogging for Sustainability. All accepted participants will be required to submit short draft papers for circulation to other participants no later than 1 September 2025. We also aim to publish, subject to agreement with editors and peer review, a set of final papers in a special issue of a leading international journal. Hence, we request that abstracts contain original work, not published elsewhere.

The symposium will be followed by a SMART Network meeting to discuss how the network should move forward, potential research collaborations, and future publication plans for the final papers.

The organisers are unable to offer funds for travel or accommodation. However, no registration fee is required and the University of Turin will kindly provide food and refreshments.

We look forward to reading your abstracts and meeting you at the 2025 SMART Network symposium.

The editors of Europe and the World: A law review are delighted to announce that their journal has been accepted into Scopus (https://www.scopus.com) and the Directory of Open Access Journals (https://doaj.org/toc/2399-2875) index and invite papers for publication.

Europe and the World: A law review aims to contribute to legal scholarship on the place of Europe in the world, with a particular but by no means exclusive focus on EU external relations law. As a peer-reviewed open-access journal by a renowned university publisher it makes highest-quality work promptly available to a global audience. Open-access makes individual contributions and legal scholarship more visible, accessible, and accountable. The journal serves as a forum where the national, international and EU perspectives meet and engage. The journal is therefore irreverent of traditional distinctions between EU, international, and national law. While primarily offering legal doctrinal and theoretical analyses, the journal also publishes multi-disciplinary work and political science and international relations contributions with an external perspective on the law of EU’s external relations.

The journal publishes article-length papers and shorter pieces offering an analysis of topical issues or recent cases, as well as review articles and special series. The journal welcomes the submission of highest-quality papers in the following formats:

Original research articles (8-12,000 words)
European Law and Practice articles: case notes, current legal developments (5-8,000 words)
Review articles: e.g. critical and systematic appraisal of the current research
Book review articles

Papers published in the journal will be freely available to read online and published under the CC-BY 4.0 international licence (https://journals.uclpress.co.uk/site/licence).

Submission procedure

Please submit your paper with an abstract of about 250 words and 5 keywords (for details please see the journal’s Author Guidelines) through the UCL Press journals submission system at https://ucl.jams.pub. The Editors aim for a quick revision process, which should not usually exceed 10 weeks.

For all queries concerning the submission of papers please contact the Editors-in-chief at europeandtheworld@ucl.ac.uk.

Submitted papers should adhere to the format requirements of Europe and the World - A Law Review. Before your submission please visit the author guidelines for the journal here.

CALL FOR PAPERS:

Non-use of digital technologies and regulation

This volume of the Bialystok Legal Studies journal is devoted to the non-use of digital technologies and the protection of such non-use by law as well as other means of regulation (cf. e.g., Lessig, 2006, p. 123). We consider here all genres of technology – be they already established, or new and/or emerging (e.g., the Internet, artificial intelligence (AI), etc.) – that are somewhat digital (as opposed to the analogue). We consider here all means of regulation (e.g., Lessig’s rulemaking, market, norms and architecture/code), including all branches of law (e.g., fundamental/human rights, public international law, data protection, financial regulation, competition/antitrust). As the contemporary ubiquity of these technologies leaves little if no choice for individuals whether to use them, our interest in legal and other regulatory means to protect their non-use (cf. e.g., Kloza, 2024) merits both academic and professional attention.

CALL FOR PAPERS:

"Modern technologies in commercial law and financial markets"

Theme Editor: Paweł Czaplicki

The main topic of issue 3/2025 of “Bialystok Legal Studies” will be the issue of "Modern technologies in commercial law and financial markets". In recent years, we have observed a significant increase in the use of modern technologies in all spheres of life, including economic market. Technological development has also resulted in far-reaching changes in legal regulations in this area. There are also spheres that should be of interest to representatives of legal doctrine, practice, and the legislator in the coming years.

This issue of our journal will focus on the following issues:

• the use of modern technologies in the current functioning of entrepreneurs, including commercial law companies in business transactions,

• electronic registration proceedings, including extension of the functionality of the electronic National Court Register,

• electronic insolvency proceedings, including the creation and operation of the electronic National Register of Debtors,

• development of the FinTech sector,

• the use of blockchain technology in business transactions,

• development of the cryptocurrency market,

• dematerialization and tokenization processes of securities and other financial instruments,

• implementation and use of smart contracts in business transactions,

• applications of artificial intelligence in the financial sector,

• the impact of the use of modern technologies on the stability and security of financial markets.

We would like this issue of "Bialystok Legal Studies" to contain publications that are part of a scientific discussion on the use of modern technologies in commercial law and financial markets and the influence of the legislator on creating the modern economy. In the proposed publications, it is necessary to subject the researched problems to scientific reflection in the context of their actuality and long-term nature. Publications should include both de lege lata and de lege ferenda conclusions.

Additionally, the following elements will be taken into account: - innovative and revealing topics, - high substantive level, - legal and comparative nature (co-authored publications with foreign affiliation are especially recommended), - citing publications from journals indexed in the Scopus/Web of Science database, - citing publications from "Bialystok Legal Studies".

CALL FOR PAPERS:

Legal Personhood in Private Law – Notre Dame’s Global Gateway Campus in Rome

We are pleased to announce a call for papers for Legal Personhood in Private Law, edited by Christopher Essert (Toronto), Eva Micheler (LSE), and Paul Miller (Notre Dame).

Legal Personhood in Private Law aims to examine questions concerning the nature of legal personhood in private law.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL
FOR THE SEMIOTICS OF LAW
SPECIAL ISSUE

On Ricoeur: Justice, Hermeneutics, Responsibility, and Personal Identity
Volume 38 (2025)
Guest Editors – Peter Langford & Rafe McGregor
(Edge Hill University)

The work of Paul Ricoeur is animated by an insistent philosophical engagement with the position and orientation of human existence. An integral aspect of Ricoeur’s philosophical engagement concerns the relationship between individual existence, as a question of personal identity, and co-existence, as a question of social life. This engagement is shaped by a reflexive interpretation – a hermeneutics – of these aspects of human existence in a manner that has been termed a ‘hermeneutics of the human condition’ (Domenico Jervolino, Paul Ricoeur, Une herméneutique de la condition humaine, 2002).
The presence of law within the framework of this reflexive interpretation arises through the question of justice, which situates law in relation to both personal identity and human co-existence. The passage from the individual to human co-existence becomes that of the interconnection between responsibility and justice. In this manner, law becomes a domain or region of reflection in and through its connection to morality, ethics, and politics. Law is a distinct, but neither self-contained nor self-sufficient, domain whose distinctiveness is to be considered through its interconnection with these other domains. The position accorded to law is thus the expression of a wider, reflexive reconfiguration of the interrelationship of all these domains.
The reconfiguration results from an overarching process of reflexive interpretation that involves the selection of, and interpretative orientation to, the texts which form the material or corpus for this overarching process. It is in this selection and interpretation that the distinctive character of Ricoeurian hermeneutics is elaborated, the question of justice raised, and the domain of law accorded its particular position. We invite proposals that explore one or more of these themes of this special issue on the work of Paul Ricoeur.

Submissions

Submissions should be addressed to: Peter Langford (langforp@edgehill.ac.uk) and Rafe McGregor (mcgregor@edgehill.ac.uk).

- Abstracts of 300 words (maximum) by 1 January 2025.
- After selection, final papers (10,000 words maximum, including endnotes and references) should be submitted by 1 June 2025.

The increasing proliferation of information and communication technologies (ICT) in our lives, has facilitated connectivity growth between distinct parts of our world. Various types of data are continuously streaming across many boundaries in the world with different models, policies, and purposes. This data is usually analyzed or stored on edge or gateway devices, which have limited capabilities and are vulnerable to sophisticated attacks. Recent cyberattacks dangerously target a broad array of computing systems, varying from data centers and personal machines to mobile devices and industrial control systems. There is a growing need for new methodologies, tools, and techniques, capable of extracting, preserving, and analyzing different evidence trails in various networked systems and services. Additionally, there is also a growing need for research into new systems that are capable of analyzing network traffic, netflows, and systems logs. Satisfying these demands will aid in reconstructing the timeline of the cyber-crime/attack under investigation and possibly, the identification of the potential actor(s). Cyber forensics and threat investigations have rapidly emerged as a new research field to provide the key elements for maintaining security, reliability, and trustworthiness of the next generation of emerging technologies. Moreover, new frameworks are required to collect and preserve potential evidential data in suitable and timely manners as well.

LAURA BASSI SCHOLARSHIP

The Laura Bassi Scholarship was established in 2018 by Editing Press.
The scholarship was established to provide editorial assistance to postgraduate students and young researchers whose research focuses on important and somewhat "neglected" topics of study within their disciplines. The scholarships are open to any discipline and are awarded three times a year: in April, August and December.

The deadline for submitting applications in the next edition is March 24, 2024.

More information about this initiative and the extraordinary figure of Laura Bassi, answers to frequently asked questions, a list of program winners from previous years - can be found on the website: https://editing.press/bassi.php
